Cadwalader Nabs Litigation Team From Boies Schiller

Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft announced that nationally renowned litigator Nicholas Gravante and three market-leading partners – Philip Iovieno, Karen Dyer, and Lawrence Brandman – will be joining the firm as members of the firm’s destination litigation practice. The addition of these accomplished lawyers enhances the firm’s ability to produce great results for clients in their most important matters.

The team joins Cadwalader from Boies Schiller, where Gravante served as managing partner. Gravante and the team led that firm’s representation on a number of headline commercial litigation and antitrust litigation matters. They join a litigation group at Cadwalader that is already recognized as a transatlantic powerhouse, and they will strengthen the firm’s market-leading trial capabilities.

“We couldn’t be more excited to add a world-class team of litigators from one of the country’s premier litigation firms,” said Cadwalader managing partner Pat Quinn. “Nick has been a builder throughout his career, both in creating a unique practice and reputation for Boies Schiller and in the philanthropic community. Nick is on the shortlist of litigators around the country whenever there is high-stakes litigation. His addition as head of our Commercial Litigation practice will accelerate the growth of our outstanding capabilities. The arrival of this team cements Cadwalader’s position as a destination litigation firm.”
