For the 2023 edition of The Best Lawyers in America, more than 12.2 million votes were analyzed to identify the top legal talent, as identified by their peers. Parks Zeigler is proud to have several attorneys who have received this recognition.
Legal Elite
This award is a peer-based award and voting is open to any licensed lawyer in Virginia. Virginia Business annually polls more than 14,000 Virginia attorneys, asking them to nominate the best lawyers in each of the 18 practice areas.
Lawyers are allowed to vote for attorneys in their own firms, but they also must vote for an equal number of attorneys outside their firm. “Outside” votes are scored higher than “inside” votes in arriving at a final score for any nominee.
In compiling the Legal Elite list, Virginia Business has profiled representatives from the 16 legal categories. Profile subjects are chosen from the top 10 vote-getters in each category but are not necessarily the attorneys with the most votes in their group. Lawyers who have been profiled before are not considered.
Top Lawyer by Coastal Virginia Magazine
Coastal Virginia Magazine’s Top Lawyers are selected via an annual poll in the legal field to identify regional attorneys who show excellence in their respective fields. Coastal Virginia Magazines publishes this list as a service to the community, providing readers with a representation of some of our area’s most outstanding legal professionals. We are proud that our attorneys have been recipients of this honor in recent years.
Super Lawyers, part of Thomson Reuters

AVVO
The Avvo Rating evaluates a lawyer’s background based on the information available in an attorney’s Avvo profile. Avvo creates the rating using a model that considers information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information collected from public sources like state bar associations and lawyer websites. Any information that affects the Avvo Rating is visible in an attorney’s profile.
Why the Avvo Rating can help you find the right attorney:
- There is no bias. The rating is calculated using a mathematical model, and all lawyers are evaluated on the same set of standards.
- The Avvo Rating cannot be bought. At Avvo, all lawyers are treated equally. They don’t play favorites, and attorneys can’t pay to improve their ratings.
- It was developed by legal professionals and people looking for legal services. The model used to calculate the rating was developed with input from hundreds of attorneys, thousands of consumers, and many other legal professionals who deeply understand the work attorneys do. Avvo Rating reflects the type of information people have identified as important when looking to hire an attorney.
- It’s as simple as counting to 10. Ratings fall on a scale of 1 (Extreme Caution) to 10 (Superb), helping you quickly assess a lawyer’s background based on the rating.
Parks Zeiger attorneys have received 10.0 ratings in family law, identity theft law, and personal injury law.
