USA Firm Profile
named the firm the 2012 Emerging Growth Company Law Firm of the Year.
SorinRand Builds on Firm Foundation
The name is new, but the reputation of the firm SorinRand is well established in the legal market- place.
The firm, which initially debuted in 2009, builds on the achievements of its predecessor, SorinRoyerCooper. Over the last two and a half years, the firm’s attorneys proved the viability of a new model of legal service, one that delivered first-class advice at a reasonable cost. SorinRand follows the same model and, like its earlier incarnation, serves startup, emerging growth and middle-market technology, e-commerce and life science clients. The firm represents more than a dozen of the fastest- growing companies in the Mid-Atlantic region, three of New Jersey’s leading alternative energy companies, and four of the 80 “hottest” companies in New York.
“These are extraordinary numbers for a firm of our size,” says David Sorin, managing partner of SorinRand, which has offices in East Brunswick, NJ, New York City and Radnor, PA.
Equally extraordinary are the accolades the firm has piled up. Prior to its reformation, the firm was named Life Sciences Law Firm of the Year by Finance Monthly Magazine and 2011 Emerging Growth Law Firm of the Year in the United States by Lawyer Monthly. Corporate LiveWire named SorinRand the 2012 Emerging Growth Law Firm of the Year and Intellectual Property Law Firm of the Year. Most recently, ACQ Finance Magazine
Reflecting the firm’s entrepreneurial inclinations, Sorin himself was a finalist in the 2012 Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year awards in New Jersey. He was also named one of the Top 100 Lawyers worldwide in 2012, by Lawyer Monthly, for his leadership in the emerging growth company marketplace.
Jay Rand, chair of the firm’s corporate practice, was named one of New York’s top startup company and venture capital lawyers. A former partner of Morrison & Foerster LLP, he also was national co-chair of the technology and venture law group at Manatt, Phelps & Phillips LLP.
Susan Goldsmith, chair of the technology transactions practice, was named to the World Trademark Review’s 2012 list of World’s Leading Trademark professionals. She worked previously at Duane Morris.
Joshua Epstein, managing partner of the New York office and chair of the litigation practice, recently was named a New York Super Lawyer.
George Nagle, previously co-chair of Saul Ewing’s tax practice, is chair of the firm’s tax practice and managing partner of SorinRand’s Radnor, PA office, while Jeff Marcus – a leading attorney in the areas of life sciences, securities law, and mergers and acquisitions – heads the firm’s life sciences practice. Marcus previously was a partner at Morrison & Foerster LLP and chair of its corporate department in New York.
The recognition of the firm and its attorneys is a testament to their strength in representing entrepreneurial and technology companies. “Building on that strength, “ Sorin says, “we have renewed and deepened our commitment to creating client value through a lower-leverage delivery model and a competitive fee structure that is about half that of our national competitors.”
