BAY SHORE, NY – May 15, 2026 – The Law Office of Joseph B. Caraccio is proud to announce that attorney Joseph Caraccio has been selected for inclusion in the 2026 New York Metro Rising Stars list. This prestigious honor is reserved for the top 2.5% of attorneys in the New York Metro Area.
This selection marks a significant milestone, as Mr. Caraccio has now been recognized on the Rising Stars list for an impressive ten consecutive years, spanning from 2017 through 2026. Based in Bay Shore, New York, Mr. Caraccio specializes in immigration law, with a dedicated focus on helping individuals obtain legal status and defending those facing removal or deportation proceedings.
A Rigorous Selection Process
Super Lawyers, part of Thomson Reuters, is a rating service of outstanding lawyers from more than 70 practice areas who have attained a high degree of peer recognition and professional achievement. The annual selections are made using a patented multiphase process that includes a statewide survey of lawyers, an independent research evaluation of candidates, and peer reviews by practice area.
The selection process evaluates each candidate on 12 indicators of peer recognition and professional achievement. While only the top 5% of lawyers in a state are named to the Super Lawyers list, the Rising Stars list is even more exclusive, recognizing only the top 2.5% of attorneys who are either 40 years old or younger, or in practice for 10 years or less. The objective of this process is to create a credible, comprehensive, and diverse listing of outstanding attorneys to serve as a resource for both legal professionals and consumers seeking counsel.
