Kaufman Dolowich LLP announced March 5 the elevation of 14 attorneys: nine attorneys were promoted to the firm’s partnership and five attorneys as of counsel across seven of the firm’s offices from coast to coast. Two of the promotions were for attorneys in Kaufman Dolowich’s Hackensack office.
“We are proud to recognize the outstanding achievements of these attorneys,” said Michael Kaufman, firmwide co-managing partner. “Their talent, determination, and unwavering commitment to client success continue to elevate our firm and strengthen the relationships that define our work. They consistently deliver strategic, high-quality counsel while embodying the collaboration, integrity, and service that shape our culture.
“We congratulate them on this well-earned recognition and look forward to the continued impact they will make on our clients, our firm, and in our communities.”
Newly promoted partner Timothy Ortolani will work in the Hackensack office. He focuses his practice in maritime, employment and commercial litigation, and professional liability. Ortolani represents clients in matters arising on vessels at ports and within marine terminals, and which frequently implicate the Jones Act and the Longshore & Harbor Worker’s Compensation Act.
He also regularly handles matters involving the contested liability of employers and non-profit organizations, general lease and business disputes, and various professionals’ obligations.
Alex Lee, formerly an associate, was promoted to of counsel in the Hackensack office of Kaufman Dolowich. Lee concentrates his practice on labor and employment law and commercial litigation. He represents clients across a broad range of industries, as well as insurance carriers, in matters involving wage and hour claims, harassment, discrimination, whistleblowing, retaliation, and restrictive covenants.
