The final selection for 2022 was made from a pool of 7,521 attorneys, producing the final 2022 Connecticut Super Lawyers list of 1,730 attorneys.
For 2022, 388 Connecticut attorneys were invited to participate as Blue Ribbon Panel (BRP) members, evaluating candidates in their primary practice area. 49 of the attorneys participated, contributing 1,892 evaluations of 1,284 candidates.
In addition, the "Star Search" process produced a pool of 2,185 names for the 2022 candidate pool.

This year, 496 (or 5.40%) returned ballots. That population provided 3,189 nominations. Since some lawyers receive multiple nominations, 1,728 lawyers were placed in the nomination pool.
