February 10, 2021

Berman Tabacco is honored to have been selected for the third consecutive year by Benchmark Litigation as one of four finalists in the California Plaintiff Firm of the Year category for its Benchmark Litigation Awards 2021.   In addition, name partner Joseph J. Tabacco, Jr. has been selected as one of five finalists in the Plaintiff Litigator of the Year category.  Benchmark Litigation, a publication of U.K.-based Euromoney Institutional Investor plc, is virtually hosting its ninth annual Benchmark Litigation Awards on March 31, 2021.

In 2021, the firm was selected by Benchmark California as a Tier 1 firm—the highest rank awarded— in its Plaintiff Work category, with partners Joseph J. Tabacco, Jr., Nicole Lavallee, Todd A. Seaver, and Daniel E. Barenbaum designated as Litigation Stars.  Nationally, the firm was recognized as a Top 10 Plaintiffs firm (for the 5th time) and in the top category of Highly Recommended (for the 10th time).

These are illustrative of similar rankings within Benchmark Litigation’s National and California rankings, both for the firm and its attorneys. Boston partners Norman Berman, Kathleen Donovan-Maher, Leslie Stern, Patrick T. Egan, and Bryan Wood were designated as Massachusetts Litigation Stars, and Nathaniel Orenstein was designated as a Massachusetts Future Litigation Star.  In California regional rankings, the firm was recognized as a Tier 1 firm in the San Francisco region, with San Francisco partners Joseph J. Tabacco, Jr., Nicole Lavallee, and Daniel E. Barenbaum designated as both California State Litigation Stars and San Francisco Local Litigation Stars, and Todd A. Seaver was designated as a California Future Litigation Star.

“We are honored that Benchmark Litigation continues to acknowledge our firm for its steady, strong advocacy on behalf of our clients,” said San Francisco partner Daniel Barenbaum.  “Recognition of the firm is recognition of the extraordinary efforts made by each and every member of the Berman Tabacco team to provide those clients with the best possible counsel and representation.”
