"It's an exciting time for the firm," said Dan Flanigan, the New York Office Managing Partner and Chair of Polsinelli's Department of Real Estate & Financial Services. "When we opened our New York office, we initially focused on our core strengths of real estate, real estate finance, and related litigation and bankruptcy. Since 2012, we have almost tripled the number of our attorneys in New York, adding bankruptcy, intellectual property, white-collar, and commercial litigation specialists, as well as more real estate and finance attorneys. As we move along, we will inevitably add others soon, including in structured finance, asset-based and other commercial lending, and healthcare."
