Benesch Marketing & Business Development Team Named Finalist for “Best Business Team” by The American Lawyer
August 26, 2024
Benesch is thrilled to announce that The American Lawyer (ALM) has named the firm’s Marketing & Business Development team a finalist for its coveted Best Business Team award—one of the highest honors in the industry. The Benesch Marketing & BD team was selected as one of seven finalists from what ALM describes as “an extremely crowded and competitive field.”
“We are truly honored to be included among such an outstanding, elite group of finalists,” said Benesch Chief Marketing Officer Jeanne Hammerstrom. “I couldn’t be more proud of our strong and talented team of professionals who consistently show up and just keep raising the bar, elevating our work product, and meeting the increased demands of our growing firm and client base. And, as a team, we couldn’t be more grateful for the support and empowerment that comes from the top down to enable us to do so.”
The Best Business Team award, which will be presented at The American Lawyer Industry Awards gala in November in New York, honors those teams that have been allowed to, and have had, an identifiable impact on their organization, from how it is run to the client work they have brought in and anything in between.
