Since it was first published in 1983, Best Lawyers has become universally regarded as the definitive guide to legal excellence. It is based on an exhaustive peer-review survey in which almost 50,000 leading attorneys cast nearly five million votes on the legal abilities of other lawyers in their practice areas. The publication now covers almost 70 countries and 137 practice areas, and Corporate Counsel magazine has called Best Lawyers "the most respected referral list of attorneys in practice."
Berger Singerman’s 25 attorneys recognized by Best Lawyers follows other prestigious recognition the firm has received this year including one of Law360’s Florida Powerhouses, The National Law Journal’s Midsize Hot List (2014 and 2015), U.S. News & World Report and Best Lawyers’ Best Law Firms, Super Lawyers’ 2015 Florida Super Lawyers List, and Chambers USA’s 2015 Top Florida Law Firms.
