Florham Park, N.J. – August 19, 2021– Bressler, Amery & Ross is pleased to announce that 44 of its attorneys have been included in the 2022 edition of the Best Lawyers in America, one of the oldest and most respected legal profession peer-review publications. Since it was first published in 1983, Best Lawyers has become universally regarded as the definitive guide to legal excellence.
In addition to these rankings, Best Lawyers recognized Principal D.J. Camerson, II as a “Lawyer of the Year” in Environmental Law. The “Lawyer of the Year” recognition is awarded to individual attorneys with the highest overall peer-feedback for a specific practice area and geographic region. Best Lawyers selects only one attorney in each practice category and designated geographic region as their "Lawyer of the Year," making this recognition especially noteworthy.
Thirteen Bressler attorneys were also named in a new Best Lawyers list – “Ones to Watch” -- which focuses on more junior lawyers who have been in practice between five and nine years.
Selection for Best Lawyers is a nomination and peer-reviewed process, designed to yield only the top 5% of the lawyers in each state. Best Lawyers lists have earned the respect of the profession, the media, and the public as a reliable, unbiased source of legal referrals.
