Bradley Arant Boult Cummings LLP is pleased to announce that the firm received three Tier 1 metropolitan rankings for its practice areas in Charlotte in the 2018 edition of U.S. News – Best Lawyers "Best Law Firms." In addition, the firm was named the nation’s “Law Firm of the Year” for Construction and also garnered a Tier 1 national ranking for Mass Tort Litigation/Class Actions – Defendants.

The firm’s Construction Law ranking is particularly significant since only one law firm in the nation is named “Law Firm of the Year” for each legal practice area.

The firm received Tier 1 metropolitan rankings for Charlotte in the following practice areas:

--Bankruptcy and Creditor Debtor Rights / Insolvency and Reorganization Law

--Commercial Litigation

--First Amendment Law

“Our firm and our attorneys in Charlotte are very proud to be highly ranked once again by the U.S. News – Best Lawyers ‘Best Law Firms’ guide,” said Bradley’s Charlotte Office Managing Partner Dana C. Lumsden. “The rankings are especially meaningful since they reflect acclaim for our work and reputation gathered from our valued clients and peers.”

Produced by The Best Lawyers In America® and U.S. News & World Report, the 2018 edition of “Best Law Firms” ranks law firm practice areas nationally and across more than 180 metropolitan areas. Rankings are based on client evaluations, peer reviews from leading attorneys in the practice areas, and review of additional information provided by law firms as part of the formal submission process. To be eligible for a national or metropolitan ranking, a law firm practice area must have at least one lawyer ranked as a “Best Lawyer” in that practice.
