Schouest, Bamdas, Soshea & BenMaier PLLC (SBSB) has been selected as one of the nation’s top law firms for admiralty and maritime law by Best Law Firms, one of the industry’s oldest and most respected legal guides.
The firm earned a Tier 1 ranking — the highest possible — for admiralty and maritime law nationally and in the Houston metro area. SBSB also received a top-tier ranking for personal injury and product liability defense in Dallas-Fort Worth and was recognized for personal injury defense in Houston and admiralty and maritime law in New Orleans.
“We are honored to once again be recognized by Best Law Firms,” said SBSB Managing Partner John Schouest. “These rankings reflect the hard work of our attorneys and staff, the trust our clients place in us, and our ongoing commitment to growth. We have worked deliberately to strengthen our capabilities across key practice areas, and we are proud to see that reflected in our National Tier 1 maritime ranking and new recognitions in personal injury and product liability defense.”
2026 has been an exceptional year for SBSB. In addition to adding experienced litigators to its team of attorneys, the firm earned recognition from the Leopard Law Firm Index, which measures financial health, personnel diversity and institutional stability, and from Lawdragon, Super Lawyers and the Houston Business Journal.
Best Law Firms honorees are selected through survey results and feedback from clients and peer attorneys. A firm must have at least one attorney recognized by The Best Lawyers in America to be eligible. A total of 15 SBSB attorneys were selected to the 2027 edition of The Best Lawyers in America and the companion Best Lawyers: Ones to Watch.
