Peter J. Rubin of Scarborough has been named to The Lawdragon 500 Leading Lawyers in America list, a prestigious guide to lawyers in the U.S. A noted litigator, he was the only attorney in Maine named to the recently released list.
In addition, two other Bernstein Shur attorneys - Charles E. Miller and Nathan H. Smith, both of Portland - were finalists. Miller and Smith are both leading Maine real estate attorneys.

The third annual guide to the nation's top lawyers includes private attorneys from a wide range of practices, in-house counsel, law professors, judges and neutrals, government attorneys, and public interest lawyers.

He also is recognized by Chambers USA for his work in general commercial and medical malpractice litigation. He is AV-rated by Martindale Hubbell.
