Foley has been named the U.S. News – Best Lawyers “Law Firm of the Year – Health Care Law” for the third consecutive year. Only one law firm in each of the nationally ranked practice areas receives this prominent recognition. Foley received 26 national first-tier rankings as well as 129 first-tier rankings on the 2014 U.S. News – Best Lawyers “Best Law Firms” list.
The 2014 rankings are based on the highest number of participating firms and highest number of client ballots on record. To be eligible for a ranking, a firm must have a lawyer listed in The Best Lawyers in America, which recognizes the top four percent of practicing attorneys in the US. Over 12,000 attorneys provided over 330,000 law firm assessments, and almost 7,000 clients provided close to 20,000 evaluations. In addition, to provide personal insight, a new Law Firm Leaders Survey was implemented in the decision-making process.
