Overview
Barack Ferrazzano is pleased to announce the addition of Eric J. Herst to the firm's Litigation Group.
Eric represents clients in commercial disputes at every stage, from pre-suit strategy and discovery through trial, arbitration, and appeal. Before joining Barack Ferrazzano, Eric began his career at Kirkland & Ellis LLP in Chicago and later practiced at one of Connecticut's leading law firms, where he assumed lead and supporting responsibility on a variety of complex matters, drafting and arguing dispositive motions, taking depositions, managing all aspects of discovery, and working on several trials and arbitrations.
"We are happy to welcome Eric Herst as the newest member of our Litigation Group. Eric is a cum laude graduate of Harvard Law School whose experience at Kirkland & Ellis and Carmody Torrance Sandak & Hennessey spans both corporate transactional work and complex commercial litigation, including trials, arbitrations, and appeals. The breadth of his experience in both sectors makes him well-positioned to navigate the diverse array of complex commercial matters facing our clients." — Maile Hitomi Solís, Co-Chair, Litigation Group
Litigation Group
Barack Ferrazzano's Litigation Group attorneys have been selected by some of the world's most prominent companies to represent them in their most significant legal disputes. Our firm has assembled a group of highly skilled trial lawyers, seasoned partners and well-trained associates, who represent clients both forcefully and efficiently. Unlike some litigators, who spend years engaging in expensive discovery only to recommend settlement on the eve of trial, we are always ready to try cases when necessary but strive to achieve business resolutions early and economically when appropriate.
