The Legal 500 United States has once again recognized Cohen & Gresser’s New York and Washington, D.C. teams for excellence across multiple practice areas, including Corporate Investigations & White-Collar Criminal Defense, General Commercial Disputes, Securities Litigation: Defense, and Civil Litigation/Class Actions: Defense.

Client testimonials featured in this year’s guide highlight the firm’s strength in high-stakes litigation and investigations. In the securities litigation category, clients praised the firm’s “terrific litigators who have exceptional trial experience” and noted its ability to handle “highly complex matters, including cutting-edge securities issues.” Another client observed that “there are very few medium-sized law firms called upon to defend the company's best interests. This firm matches up with the best law firms in the country.”

In the white-collar category, clients commended the team’s “detail-oriented and tenacious advocacy,” while another noted that “Mark Cohen, Chris Everdell, and their partners are excellent trial attorneys.”

The guide also recognized the firm’s commercial litigation practice, describing Cohen & Gresser as a “very strong litigation team.” A testimonial highlighted partner Daniel Tabak as “a star litigator, great in court and on the papers.”

In the antitrust category, clients praised the team’s responsiveness, practical approach, and deep understanding of both the legal and policy dimensions of competition matters, describing the group as excellent communicators who “know the law and the politics.”
