Dear Friends and Colleagues,   

The November 2011 issue of Chicago Magazine has hit the newstands and in it is the elite list of the Chicagoland area Wealth Management Professionals called the "2011 Five Star Wealth Managers".  Anthony J. Madonia, founder of Anthony J. Madonia & Associates, Ltd. was named to this list in the area of Estate Planning.

Five Star Professional partnered with Chicago Magazine to determine the wealth managers in the Chicago area who provide exceptional service and overall satisfaction.  As part of the selection process, an independent survey was conducted among 237,000 high net worth households and more that 14,000 registered financial service professionals in the Chicagoland Area. 

The survey focused on nine criteria: customer service, integrity, knowledge/expertise, communication, value-for-fee charged, meeting of finacial objectives, post services, quality of recommendations, and overall satisfaction.  After being reviewed first by a panel of industry experts; the list is then further reviewed by a panel of judges.  This final list, The 2011 Five Star Wealth Managers" represents less than 2 percent of all the wealth managers in Chicago.

This is indeed a great honor for Anthony and for his firm, and we are very excited to share the news with you.
