Shapiro, Lifschitz & Schram is pleased to announce the inclusion of Judah Lifschitz, Steven Schram and Ronald Shapiro in the 26th Edition of U.S. News & World Report’s “The Best Lawyers in America.” Lifschitz was recognized for his work in Construction Law, and Schram and Shapiro were recognized for their work in Real Estate Law.

Recognition by Best Lawyers is based entirely on peer review, and is designed to capture, as accurately as possible, the consensus opinion of leading lawyers about the professional abilities of their colleagues within the same geographical area and legal practice area.

First published in 1983, Best Lawyers has become universally regarded as the definitive guide to legal excellence. Best Lawyers lists are compiled based on an exhaustive peer-review evaluation. Almost 87,000 industry leading lawyers globally are eligible to vote and nearly 10 million evaluations on the legal abilities of other lawyers based on their specific practice areas around the world were received. For the 2020 edition of The Best Lawyers in America, 7.8 million votes were analyzed, which resulted in almost 60,000 leading lawyers being included in the new edition. Lawyers are not required or allowed to pay a fee to be listed; therefore, inclusion in Best Lawyers is considered a singular honor. Corporate Counsel magazine has called Best Lawyers "the most respected referral list of attorneys in practice."
