Fox Rothschild Firmwide Managing Partner Mark L. Silow said, “Establishing a strong presence in the Upper Midwest is an important component in Fox’s overall strategic growth plan. The Oppenheimer firm offers us a chance to enter this important market in a robust way, adding as established group of attorneys with strong client relationships and deep roots in the community. This is also an especially good fit because our firms share many of the same strengths, and our clients will benefit from the depth we are adding with the Oppenheimer attorneys, especially in commercial litigation, corporate and M&A work.”
“We are thrilled to be joining a growing and entrepreneurial firm like Fox. This enables us to provide our clients with all the benefits of a large, full-size firm, with a national footprint, while maintaining the personal touch of a mid-sized firm,” added Oppenheimer’s Managing Partner Brad Keil.
