Sterlington has been recognized in Legal 500’s New York Elite rankings across three practice areas in the firm’s first year of participation.

The firm was ranked Tier 1 in Corporate and M&A, and Tier 2 in both Commercial disputes and Intellectual property.

The rankings also recognize a number of Sterlington lawyers across those practices. In Commercial disputes, those recognized are Jonathan Sherman, Courtney Rockett, and Mari Bonthuis. In Corporate and M&A, Christopher Harrison, Lawrence Waks, and Michael Gilligan were recognized. In Intellectual Property, the recognized lawyers are Brent Babcock, Brian Slater, and Gregory Sephton.

These results reflect the strength of Sterlington’s New York practice across complex disputes, sophisticated transactional work, and intellectual property matters.

We are pleased to see that breadth of experience recognized by Legal 500.
