Frederic 'Ric' Cohen and Amy Cheng left DLA Piper to start a new franchise and distribution law firm in Chicago. Building on the skills of its founding partners, Cheng Cohen LLC will conduct both transactional work and litigation. 'Amy is outstanding on counseling, registration, and disclosure work. Startup franchisors that need advice about getting up and running are very comfortable working with her ' and we feel we can grow with them,' said Cohen. 'My background is in litigation.'
In mid-April, Bradley S. Block left his position as managing counsel of the commercial litigation group for McDonald's to join Loevy & Loevy, a Chicago law firm. At Loevy & Loevy, Block will develop a franchise litigation practice, as well as work in other disciplines that complement the firm's existing commercial litigation practice. 'I worked on every type of commercial litigation at McDonald's,' said Block. 'I have been on the inside, and so I understand what the franchisor is thinking before the decision is made to litigate ' what is motivating the business people. I hope that both franchisors and franchisees view that experience as reflective of my ability to help them solve problems ' before litigation.'
