The National Board of Trial Advocacy (NBTA) is pleased to announce that Ed Ciarimboli of the law firm, Fellerman & Ciarimboli, has successfully achieved Board Certification as a truck accident law advocate.
The NBTA was formed out of a strong conviction that both the law profession and its clients would benefit from an organization designed specifically to create an objective set of standards illustrating an attorney’s experience and expertise in the practice of trial law.
Attorney Ciarimboli joins a growing number of trial attorneys that have illustrated their commitment to bettering the legal profession by successfully completing a rigorous application process and providing the consumer of legal services with an objective measure by which to choose qualified and experienced legal counsel.
The elaborate screening of credentials that all NBTA board certified attorneys must successfully complete includes: demonstration of substantial trial experience, submission of judicial and peer
references to attest to their competency, attendance of continuing legal education courses, submission of legal writing documents, proof of good standing and passing of an examination.
Board Certification is the highest, most stringent, and most reliable honor an attorney can achieve.
Board certifications are the only distinctions awarded by non-profit organizations. The NBTA as well as
all board certifying organizations are committed to safeguarding the public’s ability to choose a good attorney.
Attorney Ciarimboli graduated from Wilkes University with a dual degree in Political Science and Engineering and Applied Science. While at Duquesne University School of Law, he was admitted to the Order of Barristers for Excellence in Courtroom Advocacy and was named a national semi-finalist in the American Trial Lawyers Association Moot Court Competition.
Approximately three percent of American lawyers are board certified, and Attorney Ciarimboli is a member of a very select group who has taken the time to prove competence in their specialty area and earn board certification.
