Michael S. Green Voted New Jersey Super Lawyer in 2006

Only 5 percent of all New Jersey attorneys in more than 60 areas of practice are named New Jersey Super Lawyers.

Michael S. Green, Esq. received the honor of being named a "New Jersey Super Lawyer" Rising Star in 2006 the second year that the coveted distinction was awarded in New Jersey. Mr. Green was named one of the Top Young Lawyers in New Jersey. Only 2.5% of New Jersey Attorneys were selected as Rising Stars and received the award in this category for that year.

The publishers of Law & Politics and New Jersey Monthly mail more than 35,000 ballots each year to attorneys across New Jersey who have been licensed for five years or more. Law & Politics asked the attorneys to vote for the best lawyers they had personally observed in action. The intent was to discourage lawyers from voting for others based purely on reputation. Each lawyer was given a score based on the number and type of votes received. Votes received from lawyers in other firms were awarded significantly more points than votes received from lawyers in the same firm.
