The multi-practice team was led by private equity partner Neil Barlow and associate Eric Schaffer. They were supported by insurance partners Dennis Manfredi and Frank Monaco, insurance associate Chloe Wang, tax partner Michael Seaton, and M&A associates Susan Trepekli and Michelle Verkhoglaz. Partner Paul Koppel and associates David Walsh and Ivona Dimov provided support on employment matters.
