McCreadyLaw Recognized for Outstanding Representation of Injured Clients in Illinois

Two attorneys from the Chicago-based law firm McCready Law have been recognized in the 2026 Illinois Super Lawyers Lists, the firm announced on Monday, May 18. The honor marks the latest acknowledgment of the firm’s work representing injured clients across Illinois, with both Michael McCready and Jess Jordan earning individual distinctions in the prestigious legal directory.

The 2026 Illinois Super Lawyers Lists, published annually by Super Lawyers magazine, identify attorneys who have achieved a high degree of peer recognition and professional excellence. The selection process is based on rigorous evaluation of legal ability, ethical standards, and professional achievements.

Michael McCready, the firm’s founding attorney, has been a consistent presence in the Super Lawyers rankings since the program’s inception in Illinois. His recognition reflects over two decades of advocacy for clients injured in accidents, medical malpractice cases, and workplace-related incidents. Jess Jordan, a senior attorney at McCready Law, was also named to the list, joining a growing roster of attorneys at the firm who have received similar honors in recent years.

McCready Law has built its reputation on securing compensation for clients through settlements and verdicts, often handling complex cases involving catastrophic injuries, wrongful death, and defective products. The firm’s inclusion in the Super Lawyers Lists underscores its standing as a leader in personal injury litigation within Illinois.

While the 2026 lists do not disclose the specific criteria used for selection, past editions have noted that Super Lawyers evaluates attorneys based on peer nominations, independent research, and a review of professional achievements. The firm’s recognition aligns with broader industry trends highlighting the importance of legal expertise in personal injury and medical malpractice cases, particularly in states with high litigation volumes.

For clients seeking legal representation in injury-related matters, the firm’s repeated recognition serves as an indicator of its commitment to client advocacy. McCready Law continues to operate from its Chicago headquarters, with additional offices serving key regions in Illinois.

No further details were provided on the specific cases handled by McCready or Jordan that contributed to their selection, in line with the confidential nature of the Super Lawyers evaluation process.
