Benesch is among 232 U.S. law firms that achieved high enough scores across six key factors to be recognized. 

With an industry-leading lateral retention rate, this recognition underscores Benesch’s ongoing commitment to cultivating a positive, high-performing workplace where attorneys and professional staff can build rewarding careers.
