Washington, D.C. (June 21, 2021)Sterne, Kessler, Goldstein & Fox is pleased to announce the firm has been recognized by The Washington Post as a “Top Workplace” in the Greater Washington, D.C. area for the eighth consecutive year. The firm is among 200 “Top Workplaces” – an annual distinction that features private, public, nonprofit, and government agencies that have scored the highest ratings in an anonymous employee survey administered by Energage, LLC.

Sterne Kessler Managing Director Michael B. Ray remarked, “It is an incredible honor to once again be named a ‘Top Workplace’ by our staff and attorneys. The Executive Committee and I are deeply proud of the resilience our employees have demonstrated with all of the uncertainty we faced throughout the past year, and we can’t express our appreciation enough for their dedication to our clients, the firm, and each other. And we will continue to use the employee feedback that we receive each year from the ‘Top Workplaces’ survey to make ongoing improvements to our firm policies and initiatives.”

With Washington, D.C. being a major hub for law firms, it is particularly notable that Sterne Kessler is one of the few to receive this prestigious ranking. Specifically, the firm is one of only eight included among the list of 200 employers and one of only three law firms in the midsize company category, which includes 76 employers.
