Berman Tabacco has been recognized as a leader in securities litigation by Chambers USA, the U.S.-based arm of Chambers and Partners in its California and USA-Nationwide guides for the fourth consecutive year (under Litigation: Securities Mainly Plaintiff), and for the first time in the Massachusetts guide (under Securities Litigation). Chambers quoted a number of clients, including clients stating, “I have the highest regard for the attorneys at Berman Tabacco, the team is a pleasure to work with. I continue to be impressed with the team’s breadth of experience and knowledge. They work seamlessly together,” and its attorneys are “some of the sharpest and most competent attorneys I’ve ever had the pleasure to work with” who “can handle virtually any commercial litigation or securities matter.”
Moreover, given the focus we place on client services, we are proud that a client noted that Berman Tabacco is “a client-focused firm with a strong ability to manage complex litigation.”
In addition to the firm, both Joseph J. Tabacco, Jr. and Nicole Lavallee from the San Francisco office and Leslie R. Stern from the Boston office were individually recognized as among the top U.S. litigators in securities litigation. This is the 18th consecutive year that Joe has been ranked for securities litigation, which quoted a client or counsel who noted that Joe “is a brilliant strategist” and ”a great plaintiff lawyer.” Nicole, the Managing Partner of Berman Tabacco’s San Francisco office and a member of the firm’s Executive Committee, was recognized for the fourth time for securities litigation. Chambers quoted clients as stating that Nicole “is great to work with in all ways. She is always knowledgeable, responsive, and respectful” and that she ”is a terrific, smart and creative plaintiff lawyer.” Leslie R. Stern, a member of the firm’s Executive Committee, was ranked in the area of securities litigation. Of Leslie, Chambers stated she “has a strong track record and substantial expertise representing plaintiffs, including notable retirement systems.”
“We are honored by Chambers’ continued recognition of our firm and attorneys,” said Kathleen Donovan-Maher, Managing Partner of Berman Tabacco’s Boston office and a member of the firm’s Executive Committee. “Our success is born out of our client-centric focus and vigorous advocacy. Joe, Nicole, and Leslie’s efforts embody that model of representation.”
