Published Date: June 1, 2023
Peckar & Abramson, P.C. (P&A) is pleased to announce that the firm has been recognized by Chambers USA at the Band 1 level nationwide in the area of Construction Law. P&A stands alone in its distinction of being named a Band 1 firm in Construction Law nationally, and has been named in the position every year since Chambers USA began awarding the recognition. The firm was also recognized nationally in the area of Government Contracts: Highly Regarded.
P&A’s offices in New York, New Jersey, and Florida were ranked Band 1 in Construction Law, and the Firm’s Washington, DC, Texas, and California practices were also highly rated. Additionally, 28 of P&A’s construction lawyers were named leading construction lawyers in their respective jurisdictions – more than any other construction law practice in the country. This recognition reflects the addition of three newly ranked P&A attorneys from the prior year as well as six attorneys who moved up in their rankings from last year.

“We are honored to receive this recognition from Chambers USA as it attests to P&A’s position as a leading construction law firm and recognizes the strength of our expertise and exceptional client service,” said P&A Chair Steven M. Charney. He continued, “We are committed to maintaining the high standards that earned us this recognition which would not be possible without the unwavering dedication of our attorneys who continue to distinguish themselves as thought leaders and prominent contributors to P&A and the construction industry.”
