To earn a spot in these esteemed rankings, a prerequisite is having at least one attorney recognized in The Best Lawyers in America©. This distinction is extended to only 5% of legal practitioners in the U.S. We are proud to mention that three distinguished partners from our firm – Ira Sherman, Joseph Cammarata, and Allan Siegel – have previously secured their positions as Best Lawyers®.
Allan Siegel remarked, “Clients, when seeking representation, prioritize informed decisions backed by thorough research and expert recommendations. Recognitions such as this provide invaluable insights, aiding them in such pivotal decisions. We’re truly humbled to once again join the ranks of this exemplary cohort, a testament to our unwavering commitment to legal excellence.”
Recognized firms are grouped into three tiers, both on national and regional parameters. Achieving a tiered rank signifies the pinnacle of professional esteem, reflecting commendations from fellow attorneys and a breadth of clientele across identical practice areas and locales.
Our firm is delighted to announce a Tier 1 accolade for plaintiff personal injury litigation, and a Tier 3 accolade for plaintiff medical malpractice law, specifically in the Washington, DC domain. The underpinning of these rankings is a comprehensive evaluation mechanism, encompassing feedback from clients, assessments from lawyers, and informed critiques from prominent figures in the legal sector.
Tim Smart, the executive editor at U.S. News, noted, “With over 30 years of expertise in critically assessing pivotal institutions and their consumer-oriented services, U.S. News understands the indispensable role of law firms. By ranking them, we bolster our overarching commitment to assisting both individuals and businesses in making discerning choices.”
The 2022 edition witnessed an unprecedented engagement, factoring in a staggering 8.2 million assessments of over 115,000 distinguished attorneys hailing from more than 22,000 firms.
