Keep - Philip Corboy is a prominent and note-worthy attorney. He is a member of several highly selective legal organizations, including the Inner Circle of Advocates (limited to the top 100 plaintiff trial lawyers in the U.S.), which has a
Wiki page and Mr.Corboy is listed on it. If the Inner Circle of Advocates is noteworthy then the lawyers listed are as well. He has been written about and recognized as a top lawyer in national publications such as the Wall Street Journal, USA Today, Chicago Tribune, Chicago Sun Times, National Law Journal, and American Lawyer and has served in leadership positions in legal organizations - as president of the Chicago Bar Association and the Illinois Trial Lawyers Association. One of the major law schools in the U.S. has named its law school building afer him and he has been awarded 2 honorary law degrees. Thanks. AlexBTY —Preceding

Strong Keep One of the most notable personal injury lawyers in the US for several decades. The article provides many reliable sources with significant coverage. The nomination is very ill-conceived. If the article has too many peacock terms not found in the references, or reads like an ad for the individual, then editing is indicated, not deletion.
