KRAMER LEVIN NAFTALIS & FRANKEL
(Redirected from Kramer Levin)
'Kramer Levin Naftalis & Frankel LLP' is a law firm with offices in New York City and Paris.
The Firm was founded in 1968 in New York under the name Kramer, Lowenstein, Nessen & Kamin. When Eugene Nickerson, a descendent of President John Adams, joined the Firm, its name changed to Nickerson, Kramer, Lowenstein, Nessen & Kamin. The firm's current name, Kramer Levin Naftalis & Frankel LLP, emerged as a result of personnel changes over a number of years, including Nickerson leaving to join the federal bench of the Eastern District of New York, Lou Lowenstein joining the faculty of Columbia Law School, Gary P. Naftalis becoming a name partner, and Marvin E. Frankel, the former Southern District of New York judge, joining the Firm.
As of 2006, after careful and deliberate growth, the Firm had nearly 300 lawyers, with practices in the areas of white-collar defense, securities, real estate and land use, Lanham Act litigation, and bankruptcy that were among the strongest in the country. The head of the White Collar practice is Gary Naftalis, and the head of the bankruptcy department is Kenneth Eckstein.
The firm is well-known for its active pro bono program, long headed by partner Jeffrey Trachtman. [1] The Firm has an office in Paris, France and an alliance with Berwin Leighton Paisner LLP in the United Kingdom.
