Silverman Thompson Named a Maryland Daily Record 2026 Best Legacy Business

Silverman Thompson is proud to announce our inclusion in The Daily Record’s 2026 In the Lead: Best Legacy Businesses list. 

This honor recognizes organizations that have demonstrated enduring success, strong workplace culture, and meaningful contributions to their communities. 

Honorees must have been in business for over 25 years and are selected based on their sustained growth, commitment to excellence, and ability to shape the economic and professional landscape in Maryland.  

Additionally, The Daily Record considers the following: 

• Demonstrated success through growth in revenue or employees 

• Recognition as a best workplace because of employee support programs, showing a high level of employee morale 

• Strong and consistent community engagement 

These pillars have been the focus of our team and mainstays of our practice since day one.

“We are honored to be recognized as a Maryland Daily Record Legacy Business. For the past 30+ years, we have strived to serve the people of Baltimore and the region at large. We are excited about our continued growth to better serve our clients” —Managing Partner Steven D. Silverman   

Here at Silverman Thompson, we prioritize collaboration across practice groups, investing in professional development and work-life balance. This approach has helped us attract and retain top legal talent while delivering consistent results for clients, earning the firm 12 consecutive years of Baltimore Sun Top Workplaces honors. Over the past year alone, we have added 10 attorneys across all facets of our business and have grown our administrative and leadership teams.  

From office leadership to local law students, we are committed to cultivating talent from our Baltimore community. Our University of Baltimore School of Law Fellowship is designed to reward and retain top legal talent at the University of Baltimore (UB Law), the alma mater of nearly half of our firm.  Our fellows apply during their first year at UB Law and are awarded a two-year scholarship, a one-year fellowship stipend, and a position in the firm’s summer clerkship program. This summer, including our 2026 UB Law Fellow, we are excited to welcome seven law students to the firm as full-time clerks. 

On top of their robust legal practices, our attorneys are actively involved and hold leadership positions in local bar associations, nonprofit organizations, and are committed to the success of the greater Baltimore community. Learn more about our community involvement here. 

We pride ourselves on being committed to a high standard of integrity, obtaining meaningful results for our clients, and having a forward-looking mindset in a competitive legal landscape. We are honored to be included in this recognition and remain committed to building upon our legacy for years to come.
