Jackson Lewis Named Among BTI’s “Most Feared” Litigation Firms for 2027
NEW YORK (Sept. 28, 2026) — Nationwide employment law firm Jackson Lewis P.C. has been named among the law firms corporate counsel least want to face in litigation, earning recognition as a BTI Intimidating Opponent for 2027.
BTI Consulting Group identified 92 law firms based on feedback from corporate counsel about which firms they would least want representing the opposing party in litigation. Jackson Lewis was one of 38 firms named to the Intimidating Opponents category.
“Our attorneys know their cases and their clients’ businesses inside and out,” said Stephanie L. Adler-Paindiris, national litigation practice head at Jackson Lewis. “They prepare for every possibility, but they also know when to adjust as a case unfolds. Being recognized as a firm that opposing counsel would rather not face is a meaningful compliment to our entire litigation team.”
In announcing the 2027 list, BTI highlighted the ability of recognized firms to pursue favorable outcomes, control case strategy, adapt to changing circumstances and keep opposing counsel off balance.
Jackson Lewis litigators represent employers in complex workplace disputes nationwide, from early case assessment through trial and appeal. The firm handles single-plaintiff, class and collective actions involving discrimination, retaliation, wage and hour, restrictive covenant, trade secret and other employment-related claims.
