Washington, DC (July 24, 2013) --- For the fifth consecutive year, The Legal 500, the world's largest legal referral guide, ranks Hausfeld LLP as a "preeminent" firm and again named it as one of the top three U.S. firms in Antitrust Plaintiff Representation. In its fifth year, Hausfeld LLP once again was selected as a first tier firm in the U.S.
Published for over twenty years, the Legal 500-United States analyzes the capabilities of law firms across the country and ranks firms and attorneys based on expertise, strengths, and strategies. Rankings are determined by independent research, opinions of the firm from attorneys and their clients, and a thorough examination of how the firm handles contentious issues. The Legal 500 is the only guide to recommend firms on a national basis, and in 2013 recommended just 311 firms. More information on the Legal 500 can be found at http://www.legal500.com/.
