NEW YORK –October 1, 2021 – Offit Kurman has announced an affiliation with the law firm of Snitow Kaminetsky Rosner & Snitow, LLP (SKRS), a high-end litigation and transactional boutique based in New York, New York. Six lawyers from SKRS, led by well-known attorney Franklyn H. Snitow, will be joining the firm. The SKRS lawyers serve an entrepreneurial client base with full-service capabilities ranging from complex litigation involving cutting edge issues in commercial, matrimonial and employment law, to sophisticated transactional work for private corporate, not-for-profit and individual clients. The SKRS lawyers also serve as counselors to the Orthodox Jewish community in religious tribunals known as Bais Din.
