What do doctors and dentists and lawyers have in common? Plaques. Plaques that create a wall of respect. A wall to capture the eyes and to convey worth, competence and eminence.

From time to time while waiting in the doctor or dentist or lawyer’s office, one can find an array of wall hangings which might consist of diplomas, professional licenses, articles from newspapers extolling civic or professional accomplishments, or jury verdict awards. Hanging in their plain or ornate frames, they give assurance that services will be performed by one of the best. In fact, for those who have made the grade there are laminated “Top Docs” or “Top Dentists.” Similarly, plaques are available to attorneys through plaque marketers evincing quality, certified to by various organizations. Among these are, for example, “Best Lawyers in America”, “Super Lawyers”, and even the venerable Martindale-Hubbell.
