In 1993, the Florida Bar named Mr. Sutton as a Board Certified Civil Trial Attorney, a distinction given to less than 2% of all attorneys practicing in the State of Florida. This certification is the highest level of recognition by the Florida Bar in the area of Civil Trial Litigation.
Mr. Sutton has been honored with the prestigious "A V rating" by Martindale-Hubble, the preeminent national publication in the legal field. This rating is based upon evaluations by other lawyers and is the highest ranking attainable by an attorney for ability and ethics in the practice of law. It is a distinction reserved for a select few in the legal community.
Mr. Sutton has also been placed on Martindale-Hubell's Bar Registry of Preeminent Lawyers for 2011, and selected by Orlando Home and Leisure as one of Orlando's top lawyers for 2010.
