The prominent law firm, Blank Rome, has recently bolstered its corporate litigation group in Chicago with the recruitment of two renowned partners, Daniel R. Saeedi and Rachel L. Schaller, as announced by the firm.
Saeedi and Schaller bring considerable expertise to the firm. Their litigation practice spans a range of sectors including class action lawsuits, biometrics, privacy, technology and information security, and employment law. Notably, Saeedi will serve as co-leader of the firm’s biometric privacy team. They were previously affiliated with Taft Stettinius & Hollister.
In addition to Saeedi and Schaller, Gabrielle Ganze will be joining the firm as an associate. The entrance of these three seasoned professionals into Blank Rome firms showcases the firm’s consistent commitment to strengthening its litigation portfolio and providing its clients with top-tier legal advice.
Blank Rome, with its expansion strategy in Chicago and the recruited additions, seems to be focused on solidifying its footprint in the corporate litigation ecosystem. This move also highlights the increasing relevance of areas like biometric privacy in today’s digital landscape.
The respective backgrounds and specialized areas of practice of the new joiners should invigorate Blank Rome’s service delivery and potentially attract a broad range of clients seeking expertise in sectors such as privacy and biometrics, trade secrets litigation, technology and information security, and employment law.
Moreover, their recruitment resonates with the contemporary trends in the corporate legal world which has been marked by an increasing number of high-profile litigations, particularly in the realm of technology and data privacy. In such a dynamic environment, Blank Rome’s choice to reinforce its litigation arm with the inclusion of these experts reflects strategic foresight.
