Peckar & Abramson, P.C. (P&A) is pleased to announce The Legal 500 United States has once again ranked P&A as a Tier One firm in construction law. The publication also recognized six P&A construction lawyers in its directory of leading attorneys in the United States:

• Michael A. Branca – Leading Lawyers
• Steven M. Charney – “Recommended” Lawyers
• Adam P. Handfinger – Next Generation Partners
• Ronald Helmuth – Leading Lawyers
• Paul Monte – Leading Lawyers
• Robert S. Peckar – Hall of Fame

P&A is proud to be recognized each year by a number of legal ratings services, including our Tier 1 ratings by Chambers both nationally and in a number of jurisdictions around the country. Firm Chair, Steven M. Charney, commented, “It is an honor to once again be recognized by The Legal 500 as it affirms our commitment to delivering excellence in every aspect of our business, from client service to innovation and industry leadership.”

This is the tenth consecutive year, since its inauguration in 2014, that The Legal 500 United States has named P&A a top-tier firm in construction law. A client testimonial received by the publication said, “P&A’s attorneys are the best in class but act with empathy and understanding to each and every one of my problems.” Another client added, “I absolutely feel like I am part of a team when working with P&A. Once an issue rises to the level of outside counsel, it is far too important, and costly, to our organization for us to be a spectator.”

According to the publication, to be considered eligible for the “Hall of Fame,” lawyers must be widely regarded as being at the very top of the profession, and to have been consistently ranked as leading individuals by The Legal 500 for a number of years. It also states that “Leading Lawyers” are defined as true market leaders, with long-established reputations in their sector, lead roles in multiple recent significant matters, and exceptional, widespread recognition and endorsement from peers in the market and clients alike; and “Next Generation Partners” are key up and coming next generation lawyers.
