July 8, 2025

BLB&G has been recognized by Profiles in Leadership Journal in its 2025 Legal Awards for outstanding leadership and mentorship, with several attorneys and staff earning distinctions across multiple categories.

Team Leadership

BLB&G’s Case Development and Client Advisory Group was recognized for its expertise in identifying high-value securities cases and equipping institutional investors with strategic litigation tools to protect and enhance portfolio value. Under the leadership of Partners Hannah Ross, Jerry Silk, Avi Josefson, and Scott Foglietta, alongside Managing Directors Amy Bitkower, Adam Weinschel, and Nicholas DeFilippis, the team leverages specialized expertise to conduct rigorous case evaluations, develop compelling claims under securities laws, and provide decisive counsel for institutional investor clients during the pivotal early stages of litigation.

Q2 Emerging Leader

Partner Rebecca Boon earned recognition for her work combating fraud and sexual misconduct through securities litigation. As co-lead of the trial team that secured a $240 million recovery for investors in Signet Jewelers, Rebecca achieved the first successful resolution of a securities fraud class action based on allegations of sexual harassment.

Mentoring Leadership

Partner and Executive Committee member Hannah Ross has led precedent-setting cases, including over $2 billion recovered in the case against Allianz and a landmark $2.425 billion settlement in the case against Bank of America. Her deep commitment to justice and investor advocacy is exemplified in her leadership and mentorship of the firm’s attorneys.

Partner Katie Sinderson has been recognized for her exceptional litigation work—including leading roles in two of the firm’s largest cases against Bank of America ($2.4 billion recovery) and Merck (over $1 billion recovery)—and her dedication to mentoring and guiding the firm’s junior lawyers toward successful careers.

These accolades highlight the firm’s unwavering commitment to excellence and dedication to fostering the next generation of legal professionals.
