NULaw is pleased to announce that D. Lex Arbesman has been recognized in the 2026 edition of The Best Lawyers in Canada™ for his work in Trusts and Estates. Since its first publication in 1983, Best Lawyers has established itself as one of the most respected resources for identifying outstanding legal professionals.

Best Lawyers is regarded as a trusted and impartial reference by the legal profession, the media, and the public. Following its international expansion in 2006, the publication now highlights top lawyers in more than 75 countries. Recognition is determined by practice area and region through a rigorous nomination and peer review process, with candidates further verified to ensure they are actively practicing and in good standing.

Best Lawyers: More Than 40 Years of Recognition

As the oldest and most widely recognized legal ranking publication in the world, Best Lawyers has spent over four decades connecting clients with leading lawyers across a wide range of practice areas. Its rankings are regularly featured in prominent local, national, and international media. Selection is based on confidential peer evaluations, where lawyers assess colleagues in their practice area and region. Those who consistently receive strong feedback undergo additional vetting before being formally included in The Best Lawyers in Canada™.

Phillip Greer, CEO of Best Lawyers, stated:

“For more than 40 years, the rigorous methodology of Best Lawyers has ensured the integrity and esteem of our legal recognitions. It is with great pleasure that we continue to provide potential clients with the pinnacle measurement of credibility through our Best Lawyers awards as they search for counsel.”
