Best Lawyers®, the oldest and most respected peer-review publication in the legal profession, has named Laura Edgerton as the “Raleigh Best Lawyers® Immigration Law Lawyer of the Year” for 2012.
After more than a quarter of a century in publication, Best Lawyers® designated “Lawyers of the Year” in high-profile legal specialties in large legal communities. Only a single lawyer in each specialty in each community has been honored as the “Lawyer of the Year.”
Best Lawyers® compiles its lists of outstanding attorneys by conducting exhaustive peer-review surveys in which thousands of leading lawyers confidentially evaluate their professional peers. The current, 18th edition of The Best Lawyers in America (2012) is based on more than 3.9 million detailed evaluations of lawyers by other lawyers.
The lawyers being honored as “Lawyers of the Year” have received particularly high ratings in Best Lawyers®' surveys by earning a high level of respect among their peers for their abilities, professionalism, and integrity.
Steven Naifeh, President of Best Lawyers®, says, “We continue to believe – as we have believed for more than 25 years – that recognition by one’s peers is the most meaningful form of praise in the legal profession. We would like to congratulate Laura Edgerton on being selected as the ‘Raleigh Best Lawyers® Immigration Law Lawyer of the Year’ for 2012.”

Effective September 12, 2011, USCIS has started mailing all I-797 Receipt and Approval Notices directly to Applicants and Petitioners, rather than to attorneys of record. This change has been made effective, even when there is a G-28 on file. Unless this misguided policy is changed, attorneys will receive only courtesy copies of notices. USCIS has acknowledged that this was a change of policy made without any prior notice to affected applicants and petitioners.
