Benesch Named a 2026 Top Workplace in New York by amNY for Second Consecutive Year

April 13, 2026

Benesch is pleased to announce that it has once again been recognized as a 2026 Top Workplace® in New York by amNY. Having earned this designation each year since first becoming eligible following the opening of its New York office in 2023, the recognition reflects Benesch’s intentional approach to culture and the firm’s continued commitment to making people a priority as it expands its presence in the New York market.

The Top Workplaces awards celebrate the region’s leading employers and are based entirely on confidential feedback from employees. Survey responses are collected by Energage, an independent workplace research firm, and assess key drivers of workplace satisfaction, including whether employees feel respected and supported, enabled to grow and empowered to execute.

“This recognition speaks to the remarkable momentum of our New York office,” said Benesch Chief Human Resources Officer Liz Gillmore. “We’ve grown quickly while staying true to who we are, and I’m incredibly proud of the team that continues to help shape a dynamic, collaborative and high‑performing workplace.”

Since opening its doors, Benesch’s New York office has experienced substantial growth and now includes more than 50 attorneys. The office has attracted a deep bench of legal talent, primarily Big Law laterals, drawn to the firm’s entrepreneurial culture, strong growth trajectory and expanding footprint in the city. As Benesch continues to scale and strengthen its capabilities across key practice areas, the New York office has become an increasingly integral part of the firm’s national platform.

With an industry-leading lateral retention rate, Benesch has been repeatedly recognized for its outstanding workplace culture. The firm has also been named a regional Top Workplace in Chicago, San Francisco, Columbus and Northeast Ohio; recognized as one of the 100 Most Loved Workplaces in America by The Wall Street Journal; and included among the Best Companies to Work For by U.S. News & World Report.
