Balesteri has been elected a Fellow by the International Society of Barristers, a professional legal organization comprised of top legal practitioners from across the globe. Its focus centers on the preservation of an independent, adversarial, and fair justice system.

Established in 1965, the ISOB includes members from every U.S. state, as well as a number of U.S. territories and foreign nations abroad. Fellows, deemed to have exemplified the highest standards of professionalism, civility, and ethical conduct, are evaluated for not only their track records and trial skills, but also their ability to advocate for clients, an effective justice system, and equality under the law - regardless of whether they represent plaintiffs or defendants.

• Over 10 years of professional practice;
• At least 50% of work dedicated to trial practice;
• Martindale-Hubbell's highest AV Peer Review Rating;
