Wiedner & McAuliffe, Ltd. is pleased to announce that the firm’s Workers’ Compensation Law – Employers practice was ranked as a top-tier practice group in the Chicago metropolitan area in the U.S. News – Best Lawyers® 2011-2012 Best Law Firms rankings.

Now in its second year, the U.S. News – Best Lawyers Best Law Firms program ranks U.S. law firms nationally in 75 major legal practice areas and by metropolitan areas or states in 119 major legal practice areas.  Rankings are based on client and lawyer evaluations, peer reviews from leading attorneys in their respective practice areas and information provided by law firms as part of the formal submission process.  Clients’ feedback addresses the practice groups’ expertise, responsiveness, understanding of a client’s business and needs, cost-effectiveness, civility, and whether a client would refer another client to the firm.

“Wiedner & McAuliffe is honored to earn this top recognition for its Workers’ Compensation Law – Employers practice in Chicago,” said Wiedner & McAuliffe Managing Partner Paul Wiedner.  “This top-tier ranking represents the highest levels of success that we consistently strive to achieve for our clients.”

The Best Law Firms rankings are intended to serve as a referral guide for law firm clients.  National first-tier rankings are featured in the U.S. News & World Report’s November 2011 Money issue, while national and metropolitan first-tier rankings will appear in the Best Law Firms standalone publication.  All rankings also are posted online at http://bestlawfirms.usnews.com.
