U.S. News – Best Lawyers® Names B&D its 2023 “Law Firm of the Year” for Environmental Litigation
U.S. News– Best Lawyers® named Beveridge & Diamond “Law Firm of the Year” for Environmental Litigation for 2023. This is the fifth year B&D has received a “Law Firm of the Year” recognition in an environmental category. The “Law Firm of the Year” designation is based on a firm’s overall performance in a given practice area.
B&D also maintained Tier 1 national recognition for Environmental Law, Environmental Litigation, and Land Use & Zoning Law, and regional Tier 1 recognition in all cities where B&D has an office.
“We appreciate U.S. News’ continued recognition of our firm’s nationwide and regional leadership as The Environmental Law Firm. Our focus, depth, and breadth in environmental law and litigation—including cutting-edge areas such as emerging contaminants, environmental justice, and environmental, social, and governance—distinguishes us. We are particularly proud that U.S. News recognized our litigation strength with its ‘Firm of the Year.’ On behalf of everyone at B&D, I want to thank our clients and our lawyers and staff who make our success possible,” said B&D Firmwide Managing Principal Kathy Szmuszkovicz (Washington, DC).
A press release about the “Best Law Firms” rankings states, “Ranked firms, presented in three tiers, are recognized on a national and regional-based scale. Firms that received a tier designation reflect the highest level of respect a firm can earn among other leading lawyers and clients from the same communities and practice areas.”
