Martindale-Hubbell recognizes Troy A. Wallin as an AV® Preeminent rated attorney, the highest such rating available to any individual lawyer. Law firms are given the firms highest-rated individual attorney.

The ratings are made up of two Components:
- Legal Ability Ratings, which range from C – Good to High, B – High to Very High, and A – Very High to Preeminent.
- General Ethical Standards Rating which denotes adherence to professional standards of conduct, ethics, reliability and diligence. A rating of V – Very High is the only ethical rating a lawyer can receive. A lawyer will not receive a Legal Ability Rating unless he has been endorsed with an ethical rating of V.
