A founder and partner at Glasgow & Olsson, Thomas Glasgow has been named a 2022 Super Lawyer for criminal defense.

Only a Select Few Lawyers Chosen as Super Lawyers in Illinois
Super Lawyers is a service that rates outstanding lawyers in over 70 practice areas. Only those lawyers who have obtained a high degree of professional achievement and peer recognition are selected. Attorneys cannot buy their way into being named a Super Lawyer in their field. Instead, they need to undergo a rigorous selection process that includes independent research and peer nominations and evaluations.
There are many different attorney rating programs, but Super Lawyers is one of the most respected and legitimate. Courts and bar associations around the country have affirmed the rigorous selection process for Super Lawyers. Every year, only a few criminal defense attorneys are given the honor of being named a Super Lawyer. Attorney Thomas Glasgow’s wide breadth of experience helps him provide his clients facing criminal charges with excellent legal advice.
The Super Lawyer Selection Process
The Super Lawyer selection process is complex and thorough. Super Lawyers only gives awards to attorneys who have been peer-nominated using their multi-phase selection process. In other words, an attorney cannot receive a Super Lawyer award unless their peers have nominated them because of their professionalism and excellence in the legal field. Every year, Super Lawyers select the top lawyers in each area of law with their state of practice. At the end of the final selection process, only 5% of attorneys in each field are selected to be Super Lawyers.
