Wachtell Lipton Announces New Co-Chairs Nussbaum and Savitt, Ushering in New Era of Leadership

Changes are afoot at Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz, where long-time co-chairs Ed Herlihy and Daniel Neff are standing down from their leadership roles. The firm has selected corporate partner Andrew Nussbaum and William Savitt, co-chair of the litigation department, as its new co-chairs.

Herlihy and Neff, who have served as co-chairs since 2006, presided over an impressive era of expansion at the firm. The duo, however, will not be leaving the firm’s executive committee, choosing instead to continue serving in their committee capacity.
