Ben Reznik Selected as One of California’s "Top 100" Lawyers

Chairman of JMBM’s Government, Land Use, Environment & Energy Department Honored by Inclusion in the Daily Journal’s Prestigious List

Benjamin M. Reznik, partner and chairman of the Government, Land Use, Environment & Energy (GLUEE) Department at Jeffer Mangels Butler & Mitchell LLP (JMBM), has been selected to join the prestigious ranks of California’s “Top 100” lawyers by the Daily Journal, the state’s largest legal news provider. The list was published in the Sept. 22 issue of the publication.

“Ben has become one of the most effective lawyer lobbyists in the state and we are gratified that his accomplishments are being recognized with this high honor,” said Bruce Jeffer, managing partner of JMBM. “Ben has successfully shepherded some of the most complex and controversial projects in the state. He knows how to deliver. Congratulations to Ben from all of us at JMBM.”

A graduate of the USC Gould School of Law, Reznik has been practicing law in Los Angeles since 1976. Over his career, he has represented a wide diversity of clients ranging from major real estate developers to internationally recognized companies in pursuit of their corporate projects. His work on behalf of G. H. Palmer Associates has led to the development of over 3,500 residential units in downtown Los Angeles. He is currently working with Palmer on the entitlement of an additional 1,400 residential units near the USC campus. Reznik has also been instrumental in winning lawsuits which will have broad impacts on development issues including inclusionary zoning and the ability of cities to adopt development moratoria.

Reznik’s other current high profile cases include efforts to bring a new shipyard to the Port of Los Angeles as well as his representation of a partnership led by Hudson News, Magic Johnson Enterprises and Dale Mason Cochran (widow of Johnnie Cochran) in their pursuit of retail concessions at Los Angeles International Airport.
