In a strategic expansion of its US real estate group, Cleary Gottlieb Steen & Hamilton LLP has announced the addition of David Herman as a partner. This move, announced Wednesday, is expected to bolster the firm’s real estate capabilities significantly.
David Herman comes with a wealth of experience, having been involved in commercial real estate transactions topping $100 billion. Notable among these were his advisory roles in Lehman Brothers’ bankruptcy and the restructuring of its real estate portfolio, as well as in Brookfield’s acquisition of GGP and Forest City Realty Trust.
Joining Herman in this expansion are Sam Limmer and Cindy Resnick, who take on roles as partner and counsel, respectively. Limmer is distinguished for his extensive representation of real estate-focused entities in various property-type transactions across the United States. Resnick brings her expertise in real estate law to further strengthen the team’s offerings.
This trio’s integration into Cleary Gottlieb underlines the firm’s commitment to enhancing its services and addressing the evolving needs of clients in the complex landscape of real estate transactions. For further reading on this development, visit Bloomberg Law.
