Super Lawyers Honors Nearly Two-Thirds of Goldberg Segalla’s Upstate New York Attorneys

Sixty-six attorneys in Goldberg Segalla’s Albany, Buffalo, Rochester, and Syracuse offices have been listed in the 2019 Upstate New York edition of Super Lawyers. The range of practices these attorneys represent—including Workers’ Compensation, Construction, and Insurance—highlights the breadth and depth of Goldberg Segalla’s capabilities across the region.

Thomson Reuters publishes the annual compendium of outstanding lawyers who meet stringent requirements for professional achievement and who have attained a high degree of peer recognition. While just five percent of the total attorney population in each state is recognized by the publication, nearly two-thirds of Goldberg Segalla’s attorneys resident in Upstate New York are recognized on the Super Lawyers or Super Lawyers Rising Stars lists in the 2019 edition.

Partner Julie P. Apter was named to the Top 25: Women Upstate New York Super Lawyers list, making it her fourth year in a row to earn this distinction and partner Sean P. Beiter also received special recognition with 2019 making it his 10th year on the Super Lawyers list.
