Bilzin Sumberg Shortlisted for Legal Advisor of the Year for 2026 P3 Awards
Miami, FL – Bilzin Sumberg has been shortlisted for the 2026 P3 Awards in the Legal Advisor of the Year. This category honors legal advisors for excellence in advising the delivery of partnership projects and programs across the Americas, recognizing outstanding contributions to the advancement of public-private partnerships (P3).
The P3 Awards are among the most prominent and competitive award series in the industry, recognizing the best in P3s across a range of specialties and sectors. Bilzin Sumberg's consistent return to the shortlist year after year reflects the depth and momentum of its P3 practice. Over the course of the year, the P3 Group advised on transactions across the Americas with a combined value exceeding $18 billion, guiding both public and private sector clients through a diverse spectrum of infrastructure assets — with particular strength in social infrastructure, including multiple city hall, police facility, and community center developments.
That work spanned some of the region's most significant civic and infrastructure undertakings, including government campus, waste-to-energy, city hall, and downtown redevelopment projects, bringing together civic facilities, public open space, community-serving infrastructure, and private mixed-use projects. Some of the largest matters included advising on a proposal for a $2 billion waste-to-energy facility addressing a critical regional waste-management need, and representation on a redevelopment agreement in Pompano Beach, Florida spanning roughly 60 acres that paired civic improvements and community benefits with nearly $2 billion in private investment.
What sets Bilzin Sumberg's P3 practice apart is its versatility: the group advises both public and private sector participants with equal fluency, and it has built that capability through a team as diverse as the clients and communities it serves. In addition to gender parity among its attorneys, nearly 90% of team members coming from ethnic and racial backgrounds historically underrepresented in the legal profession — a team that also includes native speakers of Mandarin, Haitian Creole, Portuguese, and Spanish.
Winners in the Legal Advisor of the Year category will be announced at the P3 Awards 2026 ceremony in October at Guastavino's in New York City.
