About the Firm
León Cosgrove is a litigation boutique, drawing its talent from the ranks of top-tier law firms such as Morgan, Lewis & Bockius, Hunton & Williams, Skadden Arps, DLA Piper, Ropes & Gray, Winston & Strawn, Boies Schiller & Flexner, and other Am Law 100 firms. We have big firm experience and the corresponding work ethic without the big firm mentality and the conflicts that oftentimes constrain big firms. Many of our lawyers are former federal law clerks, and all of them have substantial expertise in high-stakes litigation. Our depth of experience and level of skill has resulted in clients such as J.P. Morgan Chase, Volvo Financial, McDonald’s, Merrill Lynch, UBS, Barclays, Spirit Airlines, Bed Bath & Beyond, and other Fortune 500 companies to engage our law firm.
