US Law Firm Bolsters Matrimonial, Family Team

The law firm Blank Rome is adding a Los Angeles-based team to its matrimonial and family group.

Four attorneys and additional staff from the Los Angeles, CA-based family law firm, Phillips Lerner, are to join Blank Rome on July 1.

The team will become part of the law firm's matrimonial and family law group, taking its US practice to nearly 30 attorneys. Stacy Phillips and Kevin Martin will join as partners, while Marc Lerner and Pauline Martin join as of counsel.

The team has a strong background working with high net worth clients across areas including divorce, custody and domestic partnerships, among others, the firm said.

Blank Rome already has a strong East Coast presence, operating in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Connecticut and Florida.
