Benesch Achieves National Recognition, Including the Distinction of Law Firm of the Year in Transportation Law, in 2023 U.S. News & World Report “Best Law Firms”

Benesch is pleased to announce that it has been recognized in 13 national and 48 metropolitan categories in the 2023 Edition of U.S. News – Best Lawyers® “Best Law Firms” rankings.

Additionally, Benesch has been named the 2023 Edition “Law Firm of the Year” in Transportation Law for the sixth time. Only one law firm per legal practice area is receiving this recognition, making this award a particularly significant achievement.

These survey responses were combined with more than 3.1 million evaluations of individual lawyers in these firms in the most recent Best Lawyers survey of leading lawyers. Hard numbers were also used to develop the practice area rankings — data about numbers of lawyers and their previous experience, numbers of clients within different billing ranges, numbers of transactions and litigation matters at different dollar levels; pro-bono commitment, diversity, and other objective data.
