Judicial Evaluation Survey

2024-2025 Judicial Evaluation Survey Is Now Open

Each year, the D.C. Bar Judicial Evaluation Committee invites Bar members who have appeared before certain selected judges who serve on the D.C. Court of Appeals and the D.C. Superior Court to provide their feedback in an anonymous survey.

The survey is administered by an independent research organization to ensure confidentiality.  The results are presented to the Chief Judges, the individual judges evaluated, and the D.C. Commission on Judicial Disabilities and Tenure.

The survey results provide the courts and the D.C. Commission on Judicial Disabilities and Tenure with valuable feedback on the performance of members of the judiciary. The survey results also help to further the Bar’s commitment to the administration of justice.

The survey is available through 5 PM ET on Friday, January 10, 2025.

Attorneys who had a case pending before one or more of the judges below during the 24-month evaluation period from July 1, 2022, through June 30, 2024, will be eligible to participate.

Research USA, an independent research organization administering the survey, will send an email with the survey link to all eligible attorneys.

If you do not receive an invitation by November 15 and are eligible to participate, please request a survey link directly from Research USA at [email protected].
