"Dear Mr. Smith,

Congratulations!  You have been selected by your peers as a member of Virginia's Legal Elite for 2015.

In cooperation with the Virginia Bar Association, Virginia Business magazine asked lawyers throughout the Commonwealth to nominate the best in their profession in 18 practice categories.  When the ballots were counted, you were among the almost 1,000 selected . . . ."
