Kalfus & Nachman Named One of 2026 Best Places to Work: Law Firms

Kalfus & Nachman PC has been named one of the 2026 Best Places to Work: Law Firms, a national recognition presented by Best Companies Group and BridgeTower Media, PR Newswire announced on November 10, 2026. The Norfolk, Virginia firm was founded in 1979 and handles personal injury and disability claims.

How the Best Places to Work Evaluation Worked

The annual program identifies legal employers across the United States through a two-part evaluation. The first phase examines each firm's internal policies, systems, philosophy and benefits. The second phase is an in-depth, anonymous employee survey covering workplace engagement, leadership transparency and the overall team experience.

Best Companies Group runs similar programs for other employers. On October 21, 2026, EIN Presswire reported that The Brooks Group was named one of America's Best Workplaces by Best Companies Group for the third consecutive year, with winners announced at a summit on December 10. On November 9, 2026, PR Newswire reported that Steward Partners was certified as a Best Place to Work in Connecticut by Best Companies Group based on an employee satisfaction survey.

Kalfus & Nachman's leadership tied the honor to its staff. "Our ability to deliver exceptional legal results for injured individuals and families begins with the people inside our doors," said Paul Hernandez, Managing Partner at Kalfus & Nachman. "Creating an environment where our team feels supported, respected, and empowered allows us to fight harder for our clients." The firm's attorneys, paralegals and administrative staff work across Norfolk, Newport News and Roanoke. The complete list of honorees was published by BridgeTower Media on its Business of Law Digest platform.

Kalfus & Nachman's Community Record

According to akta.pro company records, Kalfus & Nachman has more than 45 years of practice and reports over $1 billion recovered in settlements and verdicts for clients. The same records list an 11th consecutive year as Pink Ribbon Sponsor of Making Strides Against Breast Cancer in 2025 and a partnership with the National Multiple Sclerosis Society, whose events the firm hosts to raise funds for research, advocacy and patient care.

Earlier Backpack Bash and Leadership Moves
