Schiff Hardin LLP today announced the addition of two partners in its New York and San Francisco offices, who together will significantly expand the firm’s international practice.
Philippe Manteau has returned to Schiff Hardin in New York after four years at Loeb & Loeb, where he chaired its Western Europe Corporate Practice. He will chair Schiff Hardin’s International Practice. Patrick Downes, also formerly at Loeb & Loeb, joins the San Francisco office, bringing extensive litigation experience on employment matters, contract disputes, and product labeling and advertising. Working together as a team, the duo will serve as outside general counsel for foreign clients investing and litigating in the United States.
