HHMR Recognized in 2026 Best Law Firms® Rankings for Construction Litigation and Construction Law

We are pleased to announce that HHMR has once again been honored in the 2026 edition of the Best Law Firms® rankings.  This year our firm received two regional tier designations in Colorado:

  • Tier 2 in Colorado for Construction Law

  • Tier 3 in Colorado for Litigation – Construction

These rankings reflect the firm’s sustained commitment to excellence in the construction-industry area and its litigation disciplines.  The Best Law Firms program, which is published by Best Lawyers and relies on peer review and other independent factors, serves as an important benchmark for legal quality and client service.

What this means for clients and colleagues
Every day, our clients and their insurers depend on HHMR to handle complex and high-stakes matters.  Being recognized as a top-tier practice in Colorado reinforces our ability to deliver results and to sustain a reputation for depth, responsiveness and value.

  • The Tier 2 ranking in Construction Law underscores our strength in advising clients on contracts, risk management, and claims avoidance as well as defense of construction-industry disputes.

  • The Tier 3 ranking in Litigation – Construction highlights our capabilities at trial and through alternative dispute resolution in contested matters involving design/construction defects, contract claims, site-injury exposures, bonding, and delay/cost overrun claims.

Our continuing priorities
As we look ahead, we remain focused on:

  • expanding our depth in the construction-industry ecosystem (insureds, carriers, general contractors, subcontractors, developers)

  • investing in strategic growth of our litigation team and enhancing our trial resources

  • further enhancing our client service model (timely communication, cost-efficient staffing, early case assessment)

  • reinforcing our profile in the marketplace to support referrals, insurance-carrier relationships, and allied professional engagements

Thank you
This recognition is a result of the hard work of our entire team, from our partners and attorneys to our professional staff, and most importantly the trust of our clients and insurance carrier partners.  We are grateful for this acknowledgement and remain dedicated to exceeding expectations.

If you have questions about how our construction-law and litigation capabilities can serve your organization, please reach out.  HHMR stands ready to help you navigate your most complex construction-industry challenges.
