Lippes Mathias’ marketing team received two Gold awards and one Silver award at the Public Relations Society of America (PRSA) Buffalo Niagara Chapter’s 36th annual Excalibur Awards. 

The firm’s “Underdog” 60th Anniversary video, which garnered more than a half million impressions on LinkedIn, won Gold in the digital video and audio programs category. The team’s game show style “Poll the Summer Associates” video, featuring members of the firm’s 2026 summer associate class and partner and summer associate program director Anthony M. Kroese, also won Gold in the creative tactics category. With their Gold wins, both submissions became eligible for the Platinum best-in-show award, which goes each year to only one submission in each of the tactics and campaigns categories. 

The team also won Silver in campaigns category for social media strategy for the firm’s 2025 National Estate Planning Awareness Week Campaign. Aimed at showing how important estate planning is for everyone, the campaign featured short “FaceTime-style” videos and bold, creative montages of handwritten notes from the attorneys on the firm’s team. 

Lippes Mathias has received 16 Excalibur Awards since 2021, including two consecutive best-in-show recognitions in 2022 and 2023.
