Law360 Touts Bilzin Sumberg as Major Competitor to the Mega-Firm Model

Press Release
October 06, 2014

Miami, FL – Bilzin Sumberg Baena Price & Axelrod LLP was recently profiled in Law360 as one of 10 firms in the nation attracting clients away from the mega-firm model by virtue of the firm's reputation as the go-to Florida firm for transactional and litigation matters.

Operating out of a single office in Miami, Bilzin Sumberg flourished by tapping into the in-demand Miami real estate market and providing a range of legal services to major players in the industry. Today, the firm boasts a distinguished roster of clients from a variety of other industries as well, including hospitality, technology, transportation and construction.

"They built a strong transactional and litigation practice mix with a big real estate practice, which in Miami has been very important and attractive," said Peter Zeughauser, the founder of Zeughauser Group, a legal consulting firm. "They've had very disciplined management. John Sumberg, he's one of the more talented leader types that I've come across."

Bilzin Sumberg is frequently recognized by a variety of legal publications, including Chambers USA, Benchmark Litigation and The Best Lawyers in America.
