Bradley Highly Ranked in 2018 Edition of U.S. News – Best Lawyers 'Best Law Firms'

Accolade, Firm News

Bradley is pleased to announce that the firm has been named the nation’s “Law Firm of the Year” for Construction Law in the 2018 edition of U.S. News – Best Lawyers "Best Law Firms." The firm also earned a Tier 1 national ranking for Mass Tort Litigation/Class Actions – Defendants, as well as Tier 1 metropolitan rankings across 62 practice areas and all nine of its offices.

The firm’s Construction Law ranking is particularly significant since only one law firm in the nation is named “Law Firm of the Year” for each legal practice area. The complete list of the firm’s metropolitan Tier 1 rankings, organized by metropolitan market/Bradley office, is provided below.

“Our firm and our attorneys are very proud to be highly ranked once again nationally and across all our offices by the U.S. News – Best Lawyers ‘Best Law Firms’ guide,” said Bradley Chairman of the Board and Managing Partner Beau Grenier. “The rankings are especially meaningful since they reflect acclaim for our work and reputation gathered from our valued clients and peers.”

Produced by The Best Lawyers In America® and U.S. News & World Report, the 2018 edition of  “Best Law Firms” ranks law firm practice areas nationally and across more than 180 metropolitan areas. Rankings are based on client evaluations, peer reviews from leading attorneys in the practice areas, and review of additional information provided by law firms as part of the formal submission process. To be eligible for a national or metropolitan ranking, a law firm practice area must have at least one lawyer ranked as a “Best Lawyer” in that practice.
