Three litigators with Warner Norcross + Judd LLP have been recognized as 2025 Client Service All-Stars by BTI Consulting Group – the only Michigan-headquartered law firm to have multiple attorneys on the list.
Edward J. Bardelli, Andrea J. Bernard and Michael J. Bovill were recognized by corporate counsel for their stellar client service. BTI interviewed more than 350 corporate counsel for organizations with $700 million or more in revenue to develop the list of international list of attorneys who “hit the client bulls-eye.”
BTI noted the Client Services All-Stars stand out for five key reasons. They:
- Are embedded in client decision-making, translating legal complexity into executable choices.
- Provide business and operating context, framing every legal option in terms of market impact, operational realities and risk appetite.
- Bring new ideas to the table, sidestepping stalemates, creating precedent and unlocking hidden opportunities.
- Operate in compressed time frames, delivering fully formed, business-ready advice quickly.
- Are practical, drawing on deep client knowledge and experience to deliver steps that are simple, concrete and fit for purpose.
This recognition follows on the heels of Warner’s recognition on the Client Service A-Team list as one of the top 200 law firms in the nation for several areas of client service. Warner was also the only Michigan-headquartered law firm to be included on the list.
“It’s an honor to have three of our litigators included on this international list of Client Service All-Stars,” said Managing Partner Mark Wassink. “Warner was founded on litigation nearly a century ago, and it continues to be at the heart of our practice. You have to prove yourself with every new case, every new matter – and Ed, Andrea and Mike have made a name for themselves in delivering both excellent results and exceptional service.”
BTI surveyed representatives of more than 15 industries, including banking, energy, health care, high tech and manufacturing to develop the Client Service All-Stars list.
