competence in particular fields of law in an effort "to
protect consumers from false advertising and to raise
the level of competence of attorneys in this State." Our
Atlantic City negligence lawyers are certified.
Attorneys may be designated by the Supreme Court as "certified
attorneys" only if they: are able to demonstrate sufficient
levels of experience, education, knowledge and skill in
a specific area of law or practice; have passed a rigorous
examination; and have been recognized by their peers and
Judges as having skill and reputation in the designated
specialty. For more information on the requirements, please
