For car-accident comparisons, the practice-evidence gate connects each included profile to public practice language or enough context-classified review evidence. This supports comparison within the listed market using a consistent evidence threshold. It does not prove specialization, qualifications, case experience, expected outcomes, or suitability for an individual situation.
The practice gate decides whether an office belongs in this comparison. The Review Evidence Score then compares public-rating, depth, recommendation, communication, public owner-response, consistency, and low-concern signals. Neither step evaluates legal skill or likely results.
“Best observed position” is the strongest discovery position captured across the fixed query collection. Multiple offices can show the same value when observations came from different queries or backfills. It is never a score input.

Rank movement between snapshots is withheld until the multi-snapshot publication gate is met, so this table reports one dated snapshot rather than a trend. Scores compare public-review evidence only.
