The National Academy of Family Law Attorneys is an organization devoted to recognizing the top family law attorneys in the nation. With more than a million attorneys in the United States, choosing the best lawyer is difficult. However, through a stringent selection process, NAFLA awards the best family law attorneys in each state with its most prestigious honor of being named Top 10. The very few attorneys (less than 1 percent) that are good enough to make the list have demonstrated an extraordinary amount of knowledge, skill, experience, expertise and success in their practice of family law.

The attorneys that make NAFLA’s Top 10 list have to first be nominated by a licensed practicing attorney. Second, its research staff verifies that they meet the minimum requirements of membership. Then they have to be one of 50 attorneys chosen to advance to the final selection stage by NAFLA’s processing committee. And, finally they have to be selected by NAFLA’s Board of Governors as the Top 10.
