Origin and Background

The firm traces to Robinson Brog Leinwand Greene Genovese & Gluck, founded in 1962 by “two Southern gentlemen,” A. Stanley Robinson and Avron I. Brog, per an independent legal-industry profile. In May 2022, Robinson Brog combined its practice with Leech Tishman Fuscaldo & Lampl to form Leech Tishman Robinson Brog, per filings in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York, which document that “the same team of attorneys continued to represent” existing clients despite the firm name change. The Manhattan office at 875 Third Avenue was confirmed against the firm’s own site and court filings.

What Makes This Firm Structurally Different

The pre-merger Robinson Brog described itself as combining “the resources, abilities and sophistication of a large law firm with the personal attention and entrepreneurial spirit of a New York City boutique practice,” and the 2022 combination extended that resource base nationally: the current firm maintains eight offices spanning New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Washington D.C., Sarasota, and Wilmington, per its own site, while keeping its original New York litigation and bankruptcy team intact.

Track Record

Past results in any matter do not guarantee or predict a similar outcome in any future matter.

Client Voice

Awesome Attorneys did not identify a published set of itemized, attributed client reviews for this firm across major consumer review platforms as of this profile’s research date.

Beyond the Courtroom

Awesome Attorneys did not identify specific published community or pro bono activity for this firm as of the research date.

Recognition

Awesome Attorneys did not identify a Chambers USA or Super Lawyers ranking specific to the New York litigation department on the pages reviewed. New York does not maintain a board-certification system for business litigation comparable to Texas’s TBLS, so Awesome Attorneys does not apply “specialist” language to any New York business litigation attorney on that basis.

New York Legal Backdrop

Commercial contract disputes in New York generally carry a six-year statute of limitations under CPLR § 213(2). Corporate bankruptcy and business reorganization matters are governed by the federal Bankruptcy Code, with New York-specific creditors’ rights remedies under CPLR Article 52 applying where a bankruptcy stay is not in effect. None of this is legal advice; a specific commercial or bankruptcy dispute should be evaluated by a licensed attorney based on the actual facts involved.

Awesome Attorneys Assessment

Leech Tishman Robinson Brog’s clearest differentiator is 60 years of continuous New York commercial litigation and bankruptcy practice, now backed by a national firm’s resources following its 2022 combination, with documented continuity of its original attorney team through the transition. The honest trade-off is that Awesome Attorneys could not locate a published, itemized outcomes record or client review set to weigh against the firm’s history, and prospective clients should confirm current attorney staffing and practice focus given the relatively recent merger. For a business with a New York commercial or bankruptcy dispute who wants a boutique-rooted litigation team with the backing of a larger national platform, that combination is a reasonable basis for a shortlist.

Methodology and Sourcing
