Portland, Ore. -- Best Lawyers, one of the oldest and most respected peer-review publications in the legal profession, has named Jeffrey M. Batchelor as the "Portland Alternative Dispute Resolution Lawyer of the Year" and David B. Markowitz as the "Portland Bet-the-Company Litigator of the Year" for 2010.

After more than a quarter of a century in publication, Best Lawyers is designating "Lawyers of the Year" in high-profile legal specialties in large legal communities. Only a single lawyer in each specialty in each community is being honored as a "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 16th edition of The Best Lawyers in America (2010) is based on more than 2.8 million detailed evaluations of lawyers by lawyers.

The lawyers being honored as "Lawyers of the Year" have received particularly high ratings in our surveys by earning a high level of respect among their peers for their abilities, professionalism, and integrity.
