Sonnenschein Team Leaves to Found MSK NY Office
L.A.-based Mitchell Silberberg & Knupp, a 125-lawyer firm with a strong entertainment practice, is opening in New York City.

Even though New York is a competitive market for lateral recruiting, the new office's managing partner, Jane Stevens, says her firm can be a player.

Its lawyers brought along the majority of their clients, leaving behind only those that required practices their new firm doesn't have.
