Life Insurance Company Rankings

As consumers, we are presented with so many arrays of products that it can be hard to make a choice at times. In order to cope with this deluge of information and details that are designed to whet the shopper in each one of us, we have developed our own methods of making our selection.

Our selection criteria are normally based on cost and quality of products. For commodities such as clothes, food, tools and many more, we place emphasis on a high level of standard at a reasonable price. In the event that we go for a product that has a higher or lower price than its counterparts, there is often a special criterion that we have evaluated in order to arrive at that choice.

The same kind of principle is also applied on picking our life insurance policies. As consumers, we have the right to expect that the company we choose to put our trust in is a solid and reputable one that will take care of financially empowering our loved ones in return for the premiums we have paid for, when the time comes for us to leave this world.

For this reason, we want to be affiliated with a strong and financially solid insurance company who can provide us with competitive packages and provide competitive compensation for our families in the future.

One way we can check if the insurance firm is a reliable insurance provider or not is by checking the life insurance company ranking it is accorded with, compared with the other top-caliber firms offering the same range of insurance plans.

Most rankings are based on information that comes from the top financial rating institutions such as A.M. Best, Moody’s, Standard and Poor’s (S&P), and Fitch. These rating bodies provide information regarding the future financial outlook of an insurance company and its capability to meet insurance and economic demands. The following tables show some ratings given by these companies including a brief explanation of each:

The secret to finding a reliable insurance partner is to make sure that you are aware of the company’s financial rating and ranking in the service it provides to policy owners. The ratings that are assigned to these insurance companies are very significant because they are the consumers’ assurance that the company is able to pay when you file claims and provide your benefits to your family in the event that something untoward happens to you.

So before you sign on as a policy owner for that particular insurance company you have been eyeing, check out the its ratings over the Internet, test this with the broker or agent, and then base your judgment on the summary. Do not go for a company that has a questionable ranking and grade. It is your money and life that are on the line so make sure you only go for the best and most secure company for your benefits.

America’s Best Law Firms’ Rankings Are Coming in 2010

U.S. News and Best Lawyers, the leading survey of lawyers worldwide, announced last year that the two publications have teamed up for an expansion of U.S. News's signature "America's Best" series to include new rankings of "America's Best Law Firms" and "America's Best Law Firms to Work For."

We want to give an update on the status of these new rankings. The ranking projects continue to make progress on the collection of client references and associate references from law firms. The vast majority of America's major law firms have provided the requested information. As with other rankings published by U.S. News, we believe that we will be able to secure from various sources quantitative data concerning those law firms that do not provide the requested statistical data directly to U.S. News and Best Lawyers. Combined with the qualitative reviews of the firms by clients­—more than 50,000 client references have already been accumulated—and qualitative peer-reviews by leading lawyers, this will enable the publication of valid rankings for all major law firms, both large and small, across the United States in the inaugural year. In time, it is expected that an increasing number of the ranked law firms will participate in the process.

More than 5,000 law firms will be ranked in 125 legal practice areas nationally, by state, and by metropolitan area. In addition to rankings by legal practice area, the national, state, and metropolitan-area rankings for law firms with general corporate practices will be aggregated from rankings in individual practice areas to produce an overall "America's Best Law Firms" ranking. Lawyers, clients, marketing officers, recruiting officers, associates, and summer associates are being surveyed. In firms without marketing or recruiting officers, lawyers will be asked to provide the information asked of marketing and recruiting officers. The overall national rankings, including the highest ranking firms by practice area nationwide and the highest ranking firms in each state, will appear in U.S. News's October edition. The full set of "Best Law Firms" rankings may also appear in a stand-alone publication, tentatively scheduled for October release. The "Best Law Firms to Work For" rankings will appear in a stand-alone publication, tentatively scheduled for release in January 2011. All of the "Best Law Firm" rankings and accompanying data will be posted online in September. The Best Lawyers search engine already appears on usnews.com as well as on the Best Lawyers website.

ranking of the best lawyers in the usa

The methodology for the U.S. News - Best Lawyers "Best Law Firms" involved surveying thousands of law firm clients; leading lawyers and law firm managers; partners and associates; and marketing officers and recruiting officers. Each were asked what factors they considered vital for clients hiring law firms, for lawyers choosing a firm to refer a legal matter to, and for lawyers seeking employment.

Based on that feedback, six key surveys instruments were created: A client survey was sent to 52,480 clients; a lawyer survey was sent to 43,900 lawyers, including every U.S. lawyer listed in Best Lawyers; surveys were sent to 2,314 marketing officers and 2,322 recruiting officers as well as to 8,597 firms without marketing- or recruiting-office contacts; and associate surveys were sent to 2,322 firm associates and 1,775 summer associates. The marketing-officer, recruiting-officer, associate, and summer-associate surveys included a total of 724 questions.

The level of response from this vast group exceeded our most optimistic expectations: 1,859 firms participated in the marketing-officer and recruiting-officer surveys; 9,514 clients – including every Fortune 100 company and 587 of the Fortune 1000 companies – provided 194,370 firm practice-area evaluations; 6,190 clients provided 11,181 comments about law firm practice areas and individual lawyers; and 8,842 lawyers provided 594,012 firm practice-area evaluations.

Client and lawyer surveys collected mostly reputational data. Using a scale of 1 (weakest) to 5 (strongest), clients voted on expertise, responsiveness, understanding of a business and its needs, cost-effectiveness, civility, and whether they would refer another client to a firm. Lawyers voted on expertise, responsiveness, integrity, cost-effectiveness, and whether they would refer a matter to a firm and whether they consider a firm a worthy competitor.

Marketing-officer and recruiting-officer surveys provided the following demographic data: number of lawyers in the firm; number and location of firm offices; number of lawyers who held senior positions in the office of the U.S. Attorney General or a State Attorney General; number of lawyers who clerked for federal or state judges (and at what level); number and percentage of lawyers who are members of the American College of Trial Lawyers or the American Law Institute; number of lawyers who have held senior positions at the U.S. Bankruptcy Court, the U.S. Tax Court, the IRS, and a range of federal regulatory agencies including the FCC, DOJ, CFTC, DOE, ERC, EPA, FDA, EU, FTC, SEC.

In addition, information was collected about client profile (numbers of clients within different billing ranges); pro-bono commitment (number and percentage of lawyers doing pro-bono work and how many pro-bono hours performed overall); and diversity (number and percentage of lawyers who are women, members of an ethnic minority, GLBT, or disabled). The survey also gathered information about firm practice areas such as the number of transactions in a practice area at different dollar levels; the number of litigation matters at different dollar levels; and the significance of major legal matters undertaken by the firm that cannot be weighed in monetary terms. Where firms did not supply information directly, efforts were made to secure the data by alternate means.

In addition to information from these surveys, the rankings incorporate the 3.1 million evaluations of 39,372 individual leading lawyers collected by Best Lawyers in its most recent annual survey. Because clients hire firms on the basis of outstanding individual lawyers as well as on a firm’s overall strength, the number of lawyers listed in Best Lawyers in a practice area was factored in to that practice area’s score, adjusted for firm size and other variables. In all cases, lawyer votes were weighted according to the voter’s Best Lawyers record; client votes were weighted according to the client’s standing; and outlying votes were disregarded.

All of the quantitative and qualitative data were combined into an overall U.S.News – Best Lawyers overall score for each firm. Firms with the highest overall scores were included on metropolitan lists that covered as many as 81 practice areas in 171 metropolitan areas and 7 states and national lists covering 39 practice areas. Because firms were often separated by small or insignificant differences in overall score, they have been tiered rather than ranked sequentially. In general, the first tier includes those firms that scored within a certain percentage of the highest-scoring firm(s); the second tier, those firms that scored within a certain percentage of the next highest scoring firm(s), etc.

To be eligible for a metropolitan ranking, a firm had to have at least one lawyer listed in Best Lawyers. As a result, 10,659 firms were included in the ranking process; 8,782 firms, including a large number of one-person firms, received rankings.

To be eligible for a national ranking, a firm had to have an office in one of 40 metropolitan areas:

Atlanta, Austin, Baltimore, Birmingham, Boston, Charlotte, Chicago, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Columbus (Ohio), Dallas, Detroit, Hartford, Houston, Indianapolis, Jackson (Mississippi), Kansas City, Los Angeles, Miami, Milwaukee, Minneapolis, Nashville, New Orleans, New York, Orlando, Philadelphia, Phoenix, Pittsburgh, Portland (both Maine and Oregon), Raleigh, Richmond, Salt Lake City, San Francisco, Seattle, St. Louis, Tampa, or Washington, D.C. or in the states of Colorado and New Jersey.

In metropolitan areas closely associated with specific practice areas (Banking Law in New York, for example, or Oil and Gas Law in Houston), a firm’s high rankings in those areas were given additional weight in calculating national rankings in that practice area.

Firms were ranked in 81 practice areas:

Administrative / Regulatory Law, Admiralty & Maritime Law, Advertising Law, Alternative Dispute Resolution, Antitrust Law, Banking and Finance Law, Bankruptcy and Creditor Debtor Rights / Insolvency and Reorganization Law, Biotechnology Law, Civil Rights Law, Communications Law, Construction Law, Corporate Law, Criminal Defense: Non-White-Collar, Criminal Defense: White-Collar, Derivatives and Futures Law, DUI/DWI Defense, Education Law, Elder Law, Eminent Domain and Condemnation Law, Employee Benefits (ERISA) Law, Employment Law - Individuals, Employment Law - Management, Energy Law, Entertainment Law, Environmental Law, Equipment Finance Law, Family Law, Family Law Mediation, FDA Law, Franchise Law, Gaming Law, General Commercial Litigation, Government Relations Practice, Health Care Law, Immigration Law, Information Technology Law, Insurance Law, Intellectual Property Law, International Arbitration, Labor Law - Management, Labor Law - Union, Land Use & Zoning Law, Legal Malpractice Law - Defendants, Legal Malpractice Law - Plaintiffs, Mass Tort Litigation / Class Actions - Defendants, Mass Tort Litigation / Class Actions - Plaintiffs, Media & First Amendment Law, Medical Malpractice Law - Defendants, Medical Malpractice Law - Plaintiffs, Mergers & Acquisitions Law, Mining Law, Municipal Law, Mutual Funds Law, Native American Law, Natural Resources Law, Non-Profit/Charities Law, Oil & Gas Law, Personal Injury Litigation - Defendants, Personal Injury Litigation - Plaintiffs, Private Equity Law, Private Funds / Hedge Funds Law, Product Liability Litigation - Defendants, Product Liability Litigation - Plaintiffs, Professional Malpractice Law - Defendants, Professional Malpractice Law - Plaintiffs, Project Finance Law, Public Finance Law, Railroad Law, Real Estate Law, Securities / Capital Markets Law, Securitization and Structured Finance Law, Sports Law, Tax Law , Technology Law, Timber Law, Transportation Law, Trusts & Estates Law, Venture Capital Law , Water Law, Workers' Compensation Law - Claimants, and Workers' Compensation Law – Employers.

Choosing a Lawyer

Call or e-mail for a copy of my handbook “The Consumer’s Guide to Choosing a Lawyer.”

There are many lawyers out there, and choosing the right one can be very difficult. Of course, I hope that you consider choosing my office to assist you. But whether you choose myself or another lawyer, there are some basic guidelines that I think everyone would agree with:

Your lawyer’s job is to help you understand your rights and obligations in a given situation, help you to decide how you would like the situation to be resolved, and then to help you reach that resolution. Your lawyer can only do this by listening to you and understanding you and your situation. You lawyer must be a good listener before he or she can be a good advocate. I use the title “attorney and counselor at law” because I believe that counseling my clients is a fundamental part of my role as a lawyer.

Lawyers can rarely guarantee any result or outcome. Legal proceedings are complex and very difficult to predict. Your lawyer should always be honest with you about the possibility that you may not be able to achieve the result you want. Any lawyer who guarantees success without analyzing your case, promises that he or she can always get you more money than other lawyers, or fails to inform you of the possibility that things may not go your way is doing you a disservice, and is probably acting unethically.

You should not choose a lawyer solely on the basis of price. When you are sick, you do not try to find the cheapest doctor in town, and for good reason. Your lawyer’s fees should be based on his or her availability and expertise, and on the complexity of the matter. A good lawyer is worth every penny. A bad lawyer can make a bad situation worse.

You should choose a lawyer on the basis of his or her desire and ability to help you, and his or her experience, qualifications and reputation. Your lawyer should be accessible to you, and should readily answer any questions that you have. Your gut feeling can tell you a great deal.

You should like your lawyer. Some lawyers seem to have learned their social skills watching professional wrestling. The practice of law is not about brute force, it is about thoughtful, passionate advocacy. Lawyers who are abrasive, arrogant and rude do not get the best results. Judges don’t like them. Neither do juries.

You should trust your lawyer. When I interview a prospective client, one of the primary questions in my mind is: do I believe this person? Because if I do not believe them, neither will a jury. The same is true for lawyers. If your lawyer comes off as slick and fast-talking during your consultation he or she will probably give the jury the same impression.

Immigration Law Attorneys - How To Choose The Best Fit For You

One of the most frustrating aspects of immigration law is how rapidly procedures change. Those seeking successful immigration often rely on the experience and immigration cases of loved ones to guide them, which is often a very critical mistake. Immigration law changes every month it seems, and it’s all but impossible to maintain current.

Since immigration law is extremely complex and ever changing, it’s in a person’s best interest to consult with an immigration law attorney. These specialty lawyers are responsible for staying completely up to date on all aspects of federal law, and helping those seeking to immigrate.

An immigration attorney has many responsibilities when working with a client, and it is very important for a client or potential client to have a clear understanding of these duties. Here’s a closer look at exactly what an immigration attorney does…

The very first step in working with any attorney is a free consultation, and it is no different here. The immigration attorney will need to know, via an interview or fact finding session, if they will be able to help. Normally, this free consultation is 45 minutes to 1 hour in length, enough time to ask questions, discover facts, and develop a comfort level. Each case is different, so it is important for both the lawyer and client to have an open, honest dialogue.

Next, the attorney is responsible for handling the ever increasing immigration paperwork and making sure you understand the entire process. It is important for the client to be actively involved in their case and not leave everything up to the attorney. The client will need to become somewhat educated about the immigration law process.

Also, the immigration attorney is responsible for understanding 100% of the pertinent facts in a client’s situation. This is critical. The lawyer will be responsible for working directly with the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) so it’s vitally important the attorney is extremely thorough and extracts all necessary information from the client.

The INS is responsible for keeping out aliens with a criminal history, and it is the attorney’s role to find out if their client is being completely direct and forthright. Obviously, it’s in the attorney’s best interest to do so, as there are severe penalties for both immigration law attorneys and their clients for withholding or falsifying important information.

The most important aspect of an immigration attorney’s role is to make positive progress on the client’s case. It is not unusual for these types of cases to bog down for one reason or another, in fact it’s rare when a case is completely expedient with no problems whatsoever. As such, the attorney needs to actively communicate case status to their client, and make sure the client understands all timeframes and responsibilities involved. The attorney will make sure the client understands exactly who is responsible for what aspect of the immigration case, either the client or the lawyer.

To summarize, it is extremely important to find the right immigration attorney. Perhaps the very best step one can take is making absolutely sure you have the right attorney for your needs. Immigration law is very specialized, so your case needs to match up with their particular expertise, and there are many specialties within this type of law. A good match in this regard plus an open, honest dialogue between client and attorney will greatly enhance the chances for a successful immigration case.
