Cordell & Cordell divorce attorney Megan Clancy was recently named to the New York – Metro Rising Stars list in the family law practice area by Super Lawyers, a Thomson Reuters rating service of outstanding attorneys.
Ms. Clancy practices out of Cordell & Cordell’s Saddle Brook, NJ, office and handles cases in New York. She earned her Juris Doctor from the Temple University School of Law and is a member of the Brooklyn Bar Association.
Super Lawyers is a rating service of outstanding attorneys from more than 70 practice areas who have attained a high degree of peer recognition and professional development. Each year, no more than 2.5 percent of the attorneys in the state are selected by the research team at Super Lawyers to receive the award.
The selections are made using a patented multiphase process that includes a statewide survey of lawyers, an independent research evaluation of candidates, and peer reviews by practice area. The result is a credible, comprehensive, and diverse listing of exceptional attorneys.
For the Rising Stars list, lawyers are asked to nominate the best attorneys who are 40 or younger, or who have been practicing law for 10 years or less. They are instructed to nominate lawyers they have personally observed in action – whether as opposing counsel or co-counsel, or through other firsthand courtroom observation.
The Super Lawyers lists are published nationwide in Super Lawyers Magazine and in leading city and regional magazines and newspapers across the country.
