U.S. News & World Report and Best Lawyers® have released their Best Law Firm rankings for 2022. They have ranked Berman Tabacco both nationally and in the San Francisco metropolitan area as leaders in the areas of Litigation-Antitrust (for the fourth time) and Litigation-Securities (for the third time). The Best Law Firms rankings are based on a combination of client feedback, information provided on law firm surveys, and Best Lawyers® peer review. According to U.S. News & World Report and Best Lawyers, of the more than 22,000 firms reviewed, only about 2,000 received a national law firm ranking in this edition.
To be eligible for consideration as a Best Law Firm, a firm must have at least one attorney ranked in the current edition of Best Lawyers®. Berman Tabacco has three ranked attorneys: Joseph J. Tabacco, Jr. has been recognized in the areas of Litigation (Securities) and Litigation (Antitrust), Nicole Lavallee has been recognized in the area of Litigation (Securities), and Christopher T. Heffelfinger has been recognized in the area Litigation (Antitrust).

Phil Greer, the CEO of Best Lawyers said, “We are proud that Best Law Firms rankings continuously act as a top marker of distinction throughout the legal industry. The evaluation process for the 2022 Best Law Firms publication has remained just as rigorous and discerning as it was when we created the publication 12 years ago.”
