By August 20, 2026

South Florida’s preeminent litigation firm Kluger, Kaplan, Silverman, Katzen & Levine is pleased to announce that 14 of the Firm’s attorneys have once again been recognized by Best Lawyers as The Best Lawyers In America®, the oldest and most respected peer review publication in the legal profession. 

Recognition in Best Lawyers is based entirely on confidential evaluations from leading lawyers across the country, highlighting exceptional professional excellence and dedication to the highest standards of client service. 

“We are incredibly proud to see 14 of our attorneys recognized by their peers in the 2027 edition of The Best Lawyers in America,” said Alan Kluger, Founding Member of Kluger, Kaplan, Silverman, Katzen & Levine. “The breadth of this recognition reflects the depth of talent and experience across our firm and, most importantly, the trust our attorneys have earned from clients and colleagues throughout their careers. We congratulate each of our attorneys on this well-deserved honor.” 

For more than four decades, recognition by Best Lawyers has been widely regarded by both clients and legal professionals as a significant honor. The publication’s lists of outstanding lawyers are compiled by conducting exhaustive peer review surveys in which tens of thousands of leading lawyers confidentially evaluate their professional peers. If votes for a lawyer are positive enough for recognition, that lawyer then must maintain those votes in subsequent polls to remain in each edition, according to the Best Lawyers website.
