National Law Journal Names Pryor Cashman to 2015 Midsize Hot List
Pryor Cashman is proud to announce that the firm has been named to the National Law Journal’s 2015 "Midsize Hot List." This is the third time since 2009 that Pryor Cashman has received this recognition.
The National Law Journal singled out Pryor Cashman for the steady stream of dynamic younger lawyers joining the partnership ranks. As noted by Managing Partner Ronald Shechtman, "We are a firm that is getting younger. That is particularly important for midsize firms." Some of these junior partners are ‘homegrown,’ having come up through the ranks, and some are coming from other firms, attracted to an environment that allows them a lot of latitude to build sizeable books of business.
The National Law Journal notes that this younger energy is complemented by the firm’s commitment to growing practices in emerging industries and areas. As one example, through the firm’s work in the entertainment, technology and investment arenas, Pryor Cashman recognized early on the transformation of intellectual property rights management, transactions and litigation as a result of the rise of digital media. The firm’s Digital Media Group handles digital licensing and copyright protection for a wide array of clients, from entrepreneurs and start-ups to blue chip companies and international celebrities.
For the Midsize Hot List, National Law Journal readers nominate law firms with between 51 and 150 attorneys that excel at deal making, litigation, counseling and other legal services. The highlighted firms are also included because they implement creative strategies to stay competitive with larger law firms, their cultures attract and retain top talent, and they take pains to understand and serve their clients' needs.
