Peckar & Abramson, P.C. (P&A) is pleased to announce that the firm has been named “Construction Law Firm of the Year” by Chambers USA, one of the most prestigious legal publications in the industry. The award was presented during Chambers’ annual awards ceremony on June 13.

According to Chambers, the “Law Firm of the Year” award “recognizes a law firm’s pre-eminence in key jurisdictions in the country” and “reflects achievements over the past 12 months, including outstanding work, impressive strategic growth, and excellence in client service.” The award honors “the work of national and international law firms across the USA and is based on the research for the recent edition of Chambers USA.” Since the award’s inception in 2006, P&A has received this recognition more often than any other firm.

Firm Chair Steven M. Charney commented, “We are extremely honored to receive this award from Chambers USA. For over 45 years, P&A has remained steadfast in our dedication to delivering exemplary client service and serving and advancing the construction community. Recognition of this caliber and breadth is a testament to the firm’s position as a leader in the construction industry.”

Earlier this month, P&A announced that Chambers USA had once again recognized the firm at the Band 1 level nationwide in Construction Law. P&A stands alone in 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 also had 29 lawyers, six regions, and the government contracts practice recognized.
