Gana Weinstein LLP is proud to announce that it has been nominated by The National Law Journal for Best Business Tort Law Firm in the United States as part of the publication’s 2026 Elite Trial Lawyers awards.
The Elite Trial Lawyers awards recognize leading plaintiff-side law firms and attorneys across the country who have achieved significant results in high stakes litigation and arbitration. The awards are administered by The National Law Journal and Law.com, two of the most recognized legal industry publications in the United States.
The nomination reflects Gana Weinstein LLP’s continued national work representing investors, businesses, and individuals harmed by financial misconduct, fraud, breaches of fiduciary duty, and other complex business torts. The firm has built a reputation for aggressively pursuing claims against broker dealers, investment advisers, financial institutions, and other entities that fail to protect investors and consumers.
For more than two decades, Gana Weinstein LLP has represented clients in securities arbitration and litigation matters throughout the country. The firm regularly handles complex cases involving unsuitable investment recommendations, selling away schemes, supervision failures, overconcentration, unauthorized trading, private placement fraud, structured products, Ponzi schemes, and alternative investment losses.
The firm’s attorneys have recovered hundreds of millions of dollars on behalf of investors and have represented thousands of clients in arbitration forums including FINRA, AAA, JAMS, and the National Futures Association, as well as in state and federal courts nationwide.
Managing Partner Adam Gana stated that the nomination reflects the work ethic and commitment of the entire firm.
“We are honored to be recognized by The National Law Journal among some of the most respected plaintiff-side trial firms in the country. Our firm has always focused on taking on difficult and meaningful cases involving serious financial misconduct and helping investors who often feel overwhelmed by large financial institutions. This nomination is a reflection of the dedication of our attorneys and staff and the trust our clients place in us.”
Gana Weinstein LLP has become nationally known for its work in complex investor and financial fraud matters, including claims involving private placements, non traded REITs, GPB Capital, GWG Holdings, structured notes, interval funds, DST investments, and other complex financial products sold to retail investors.
In recent years, the firm has handled a number of significant arbitration matters involving allegations of broker misconduct, supervision failures, elder exploitation, and off platform investment schemes. The firm also remains active in industry advocacy and investor protection efforts.
Adam Gana previously served as President of the Public Investors Advocate Bar Association (PIABA), one of the leading organizations dedicated to protecting investors and improving fairness within the securities arbitration system. Attorneys at the firm regularly lecture, write, and speak on issues involving securities regulation, investor protection, FINRA arbitration, and financial industry accountability.
The National Law Journal’s Elite Trial Lawyers program is widely regarded as one of the premier plaintiff-side litigation recognitions in the country. The program highlights firms that have demonstrated exceptional advocacy and results in complex and impactful cases.
The winners of the 2026 Elite Trial Lawyers awards will be announced at a national awards event in New York City later this year.
Gana Weinstein LLP maintains offices in New York and Chicago and represents investors nationwide in securities arbitration and litigation matters.
Individuals who believe they may have suffered investment losses due to broker misconduct, unsuitable investment recommendations, private placement fraud, or other forms of financial misconduct are encouraged to contact the firm for a free consultation.
