(EMAILWIRE.COM, January 25, 2012 ) CHICAGO, IL -- Kerry Peck and Ken Bloom, two estate attorneys in Chicago with the firm Peck Bloom, have recently been named as Illinois Super Lawyers for the sixth year in a row.
A Super Lawyer is an attorney who has received a high-degree of peer recognition and professional achievement. Candidates are nominated by their peers and then go through a rigorous, four step selection process before being named to the Super Lawyer list.
"Knowing that we have two Super Lawyers on our team means that our clients can trust us to look out for their best interests. We do more than just practice estate law, we help our clients make sure they're taken care of in their later years. We're well-versed in everything from drafting a power of attorney, to asset protection, to helping clients name a guardian for either their children or their elderly parents. If you have questions, we can help," said Kerry Peck, managing partner of Peck Bloom LLC (http://www.peckbloom.com).
In addition to Peck and Bloom being named Super Lawyers for their work concerning elder law in Chicago, Leading Lawyer Magazine has named Kerry Peck one of the 'Top Ten Elder Law Attorneys.' Leading Lawyer Magazine surveys attorneys and asks them which of their peers they would recommend to family members or friends. The award is available to only the most respected and top lawyers in their field.
Another of the firm's lawyers, Chicago litigation lawyer Timothy Ritchey, has been named an Illinois Rising Star. The designation is given to attorneys who have been practicing fewer than 10 years or who are under 40 years old. The award is designed to showcase attorneys who show incredible promise and fewer than 2.5% of lawyers in each state can be named to the list.
"Our clients are important to us and that's why we do everything possible to look out for their best interests. It really means a lot to us that our peers have nominated us as the attorneys they'd most trust to work with their own families. We treat each one of our clients as if we'd want our own family to be treated, whether they need us to help with contesting wills, challenging guardianship or planning their estates. If you're in the Chicago area and want to know more about protecting yourself or a loved one as you get older, please give us a call," said Peck.
