Goldstein Hall PLLC Receives Peer Review Rating for Brian J. Markowitz from Martindale-Hubbell

Martindale-Hubbell has recognized Brian J. Markowitz with a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating.

Brian J. Markowitz was given an “AV” rating from his peers, which means that he was deemed to have very high professional ethics and preeminent legal ability.  Only lawyers with the highest ethical standards and professional ability receive a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings evaluates lawyers based on the anonymous opinions of members of the Bar and the Judiciary, including both those who are rated and those who are not. The first review to establish a lawyer’s rating usually occurs three years after his/her first admission to the Bar.

Martindale-Hubbell conducts secure online Peer Review Ratings surveys of lawyers across multiple jurisdictions and geographic locations, in similar areas of practice as the lawyer being rated. Reviewers are instructed to assess their colleagues’ general ethical standards and legal ability in a specific area of practice.

In addition, Brian was selected as a New York Rising Star by Super Lawyers Magazine in 2011 and 2012, an award given to only the top 2.5 percent of up-and-coming attorneys in any state. He is also the drafter of New York Lien Law Section 44-b, dealing with necessary parties to a public improvement mechanic’s lien foreclosure action.

Congratulations, Brian!
