BB&K’s 2021 Best Law Firms Rankings Include New Tier 1 Recognitions

Best Best & Krieger LLP saw increases in many 2021 Best Law Firms rankings, released today by U.S. News & World Report and Best Lawyers®. Every year, the firm’s peer- and client-based rankings continue to grow across both metropolitan and practice areas.
 
This year, BB&K is pleased to receive Metropolitan Tier 1 Best Law Firms rankings for the first time in the Inland Empire region of California for Municipal Law, in Oakland for Land Use & Zoning Law and in Sacramento for Real Estate Law.
