The Best Companies to Work For: Law Firms, a sublist of U.S. News’ Best Companies to Work For lists, evaluates how various firms best meet the needs and expectations of their employees compared with their peers. The list considers the quality of pay and benefits; work-life balance; job stability; physical and psychological comfort; belongingness; and opportunities for professional development when determining which firms are the “best.”
In February, the firm was named to the 2026 America’s Best Midsize Employers list by Forbes ranking 152nd out of 500 companies with 1,000 to 5,000 employees. Husch Blackwell is the second highest ranked law firm and is one of only seven to be featured on the list.
