Best Lawyers has announced its “Best Law Firms” rankings for 2026, recognizing Lieff Cabraser for national and regional excellence, including a national Tier 1 ranking for Mass Tort Litigation/Class Actions. The rankings are based on a rigorous evaluation process that includes the collection of client and lawyer feedback, peer review from leading attorneys, and review of additional information provided by law firms.
The annual publication spotlights firms known for quality, specialized knowledge, and commitment to excellence, featuring only the top 4% of law firms nationwide.
In August, thirty-six of the firm’s attorneys were named to The Best Lawyers in America® 2026 edition, including seven associates recognized in Best Lawyers: Ones to Watch® in America 2026, highlighting the firm’s legal excellence across generations. In addition, three partners—Mark P. Chalos, Kelly M. Dermody, and Rachel Geman—received “Lawyer of the Year” honors in their respective practice areas, an accolade of particular significance, as only one lawyer in each practice area and designated metropolitan area is recognized each year.
