Lewis Brisbois is pleased to welcome Daniel Feldman to its Newark and New York offices as a partner in the firm’s Business Aviation and Executive Compensation & Employee Benefits Practices.

In addition, he has assisted public and private clients with buy-side and sell-side due diligence related to mergers and acquisitions as well as workforce matters under the Fair Labor Standards Act.
In discussing his move to Lewis Brisbois, Mr. Feldman explained, “I was drawn to Lewis Brisbois because the firm provided a rare opportunity to be heavily involved in the business aviation and executive compensation arenas at the same time. This appealed to me and was unique to practicing law at Lewis Brisbois.”
