Burns White LLC is among the Best Law Firms in the country, according to the 2022 U.S. News Media Group and Best Lawyers® “Best Law Firms” survey, receiving 14 recognitions. Additionally, the firm’s Railroad practice group received a National First-Tier ranking for the twelfth consecutive year and the Construction Law practice group received a National Three-Tier ranking.

U.S. News bases its national and regional rankings on a rigorous evaluation process that includes client and lawyer evaluations and peer reviews from leading attorneys in their fields nationwide. Those surveyed provide feedback on the individual practice group’s expertise, responsiveness, understanding of business needs, cost-effectiveness, civility, integrity, and likelihood of referral.

“It is an honor to be recognized again as a top firm,” said Mary-Jo Rebelo, Chief Executive Officer.  “There are many tremendous law firms that practice in the areas we were acknowledged, and we appreciate that our clients and peers value the legal services we offer.”

In addition to the national ranking for Railroad Law and Construction Law, Burns White was recognized in the Metropolitan rankings in two separate tiers.

  • Tier 1:  Commercial Litigation; Construction Law; Litigation—Construction; Litigation—Insurance; Medical Malpractice Law—Defendants; Personal Injury Litigation—Defendants; Railroad Law; Workers’ Compensation Law—Employers
  • Tier 2: Family Law; Insurance Law, Product Liability Litigation—Defendants
