Nothing in this article really indicates to me that the law firm is notable by Wikipedia standards. The awards won ("Best Lawyers in America" and "Super Lawyer") were won by individual employees and not the firm itself. Besides which, is that a significant number of honours for a law firm? Contested prod. ... disco spinster   talk  00:41, 9 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete Without citations in secondary sources, the firm fails Wikipedia:Notability. The awards mentioned do not confer notability - they only indicate which lawyers are viewed favorably by others in the profession. --Megaboz (talk) 03:05, 9 October 2008 (UTC)

 * DeleteThe article reads like an advert. This is an article about a law firm,  per Discospinster's nom, individual awards do not  necessarily indicate a law firms notability.—  Ѕandahl   &#9829;  00:27, 14 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete--indeed, not notable, and the author's reason for inclusion (that it was a school assignment) has no weight. Drmies (talk) 04:32, 14 October 2008 (UTC)
