80 Selected to “Best Lawyers in America” List
39 Named “Ones to Watch”
Two Distinguished as “Lawyer of the Year”

New York, NY (August 18, 2022) – Epstein Becker Green (EBG) is proud to announce that 80 attorneys have been selected by their peers for inclusion in the 2023 edition of the Best Lawyers in America©. Additionally, 39 attorneys have been named “Ones to Watch” by their peers, a designation given to attorneys who are earlier in their careers and who demonstrate “outstanding professional excellence in private practice.”

Each year, Best Lawyers also honors individual attorneys who receive the highest overall peer feedback in each practice area and location with the “Lawyer of the Year” recognition. EBG is proud to share that Peter A. Steinmeyer and Jack Wenik, Members of the Firm, have each been recognized with a “Lawyer of the Year” designation in the practice areas of Employment Law—Management and Litigation—Regulatory Enforcement (SEC, Telecom, Energy), respectively.

Best Lawyers compiles lists of outstanding and distinguished attorneys by conducting peer-reviewed surveys in which thousands of leading lawyers confidentially evaluate the professional abilities of their peers within their geographical and legal practice area.

We are proud of this group of highly respected attorneys and would like to offer our congratulations to those being recognized.
