Newcomers Help Reed Smith Venture into New York

A stronger New York presence has developed for Reed Smith with the addition of 21 Hall Dickler lawyers from New York and Beverly Hills, who joined Reed Smith at the beginning of the month. Hall Dickler, which was 70 years old and concentrated on advertising law, has now come to an end. Several other Hall Dickler lawyers had left during 2003 to join Los Angeles-based Manatt, Phelps & Phillips.

The move also allows Reed Smith to enter into an appealing client base on Madison Avenue. Nine of the new attorneys will be partners, and a new advertising and marketing group will be run by Douglas Wood, an executive partner at Hall Dickler. Wood's collection of attorneys will oversee several matters, including mergers and acquisitions, litigation, and intellectual property. Among the group's clients are media companies and advertising and promotion agencies.
