(November 1, 2011 – Bethesda, MD) U.S. News & World Report has named Lerch, Early & Brewer in tier 1 for family law in the Washington, DC metropolitan area in the 2011-2012 “Best Law Firms” rankings. U.S. News Media Group compiled the ratings in conjunction with Best Lawyers®.
U.S. News writes
"The mission of “Best Law Firms” from the start has been to help guide referring lawyers and clients – from the country’s largest companies needing corporate legal advice to individuals needing to get a divorce or write a will – issues that have a bet-the-company implication (in the case of a corporation) or a potentially life-changing result (in the case of an individual)."
Earlier this year, all the partners in the firm's Family Law group were listed in The Best Lawyers in America® 2012 (Copyright 2011 by Woodward/White, Inc., of Aiken, S.C.):
The U.S.News – Best Lawyers® “Best Law Firms” rankings are based on a rigorous evaluation process that includes the collection of client and lawyer evaluations, peer review from leading attorneys in their field, and review of additional information provided by law firms as part of the formal submission process.
