Overview
Mike Bendel has been named to Thomson Reuters’s 2026 Stand-out Lawyers list. Recognized attorneys are independently nominated as outstanding lawyers by one or more of their clients. Mike will be featured in the Thomson Reuters database, which legal departments from around the world use to search for peer-recommended lawyers.
Thomson Reuters’s Stand-out Lawyers database highlights more than 20,000 private‑practice attorneys who have been nominated directly by their clients. Every lawyer included is identified through the Sharplegal global survey, where clients independently name the professionals they consider truly exceptional. Nominations focus on superior technical expertise, client-centric service, responsiveness, and strong, trust-based relationships. Law firms play no role in selecting the survey population or influencing the nomination process, ensuring the recognition is entirely client-driven.
Congratulations, Mike — truly well deserved.
