By Greenberg Traurig Maher Llp, PRNEMonday, November 30, 2009
LONDON, December 1 - Greenberg Traurig Maher LLP, the firm recently established in London by
international law firm Greenberg Traurig, LLP, announced that Naomi Feinstein
will be joining the firm as a shareholder to establish its Employment
Practice. Naomi is the 13th shareholder hire in the rapidly growing firm,
which now includes more than 20 lawyers.
Feinstein will join Greenberg Traurig Maher from Lovells, where she was a
partner in the firm's specialist employment team. Her practice encompasses
all aspects of employment law, both contentious and non-contentious and
including transactional work. She has particular experience advising clients
on employment issues arising in mergers and acquisitions (including
coordinating employment advice on cross-border sale and acquisitions) and on
the employment aspects of business restructurings and reorganisations. Naomi
provides day-to-day employment advice to clients across a wide range of
sectors, including banking and financial services, insurance, commerce,
manufacturing and retailing. She has been recognized as a leading UK
employment lawyer in both the Legal 500 and Chambers directories.
"Naomi is one of the top lawyers in the area of UK employment law and an
important addition to the firm," said Paul Maher, Chairman of Greenberg
Traurig Maher's London office. "Her wide-ranging experience in this area of
law - especially in dealing with employment law issues arising in the M&A and
restructuring arenas - will be invaluable as we continue to establish our
full-service team."
Maher added, "The growth of the London office has exceeded my
expectations as to the speed in which the firm has brought on board talented
lawyers. These lawyers are servicing a rapidly growing portfolio of client
work, which is necessitating a continued and sustained recruitment drive."
"Attracting an experienced employment law specialist like Naomi is an
important step in the strategic expansion of our London office," said Richard
A. Rosenbaum, Greenberg Traurig's President. "She is a valuable addition to
the firm's 100-lawyer Labor & Employment Practice, bringing with her
extensive knowledge of employment law and the complex issues that can have a
significant impact on a range of corporate transactions."
