Martindale-Hubbell recognizes Troy A. Wallin as an AV® Preeminent rated attorney, the highest such rating available to any individual lawyer. Law firms are given the firms highest-rated individual attorney. The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings system is based on the confidential opinions of members of the Bar and the Judiciary, including both those who are rated and those who are not. The ratings are made up of two Components:

1. Legal Ability Ratings, which range from C - Good to High, B - High to Very High, and A - Very High to Preeminent.
2. General Ethical Standards Rating which denotes adherence to professional standards of conduct, ethics, reliability and diligence. A rating of V - Very High is the only ethical rating a lawyer can receive. A lawyer will not receive a Legal Ability Rating unless he has been endorsed with an ethical rating of V.

Thus, an AV® Preeminent Peer Review Rating shows that a lawyer has reached the height of professional excellence. He has usually practiced law for many years, and is recognized for highest levels of skill and integrity.
