Ladas & Parry LLP Continues Growth

Chicago, Illinois USA - April 16, 2009 - Ladas & Parry's IP practice is growing. The addition of David C. Brezina as Of Counsel is the latest in a series of new hires in recent months.

Dave Brezina, formerly of Barnes & Thornburg LLP has extensive experience in patent and trademark prosecution and litigation.

Burt Ehrlich, the head of litigation in Ladas & Parry's Chicago Office reports "It will be great to work with Dave, since he is a completely known quantity to me. Not only did Dave and I go to law school together, but for many years we worked together in litigation at the intellectual property law firm originally created by his grandfather over 75 years ago and where his father was a senior partner. We did frontline duty at a relatively small law firm that had a longstanding blue chip client base, including Fortune 500 companies."

"Most importantly," says Dave Brezina "I grew up learning that clients come first and the people and systems here let us focus on efficient and effective client service."

"I have known Dave for most of my career through our work together in service to the organized bar, and have always admired his scholarship and keen strategic thinking, " says Fred Meyers, partner. "It is very exciting to have a practitioner who not only understands the importance of trade identity but our passion for delivering quality representation without the sticker shock that sometimes goes with retaining large general practice firms."

During this economic downturn, Ladas sees opportunities. Not just in the opportunity to add more attorneys, but in ways to serve their clients...
