Freedman Normand Friedland LLP

At Freedman Normand Friedland LLP, with offices in Miami Beach, Florida; Boston, Massachusetts; and New York, New York, we have built our reputation on a distinctive blend of creative legal strategy, technical sophistication and relentless advocacy. Our practice spans a broad and demanding spectrum of disciplines, including:

• Appellate
• Arbitration
• Art restitution and cultural property disputes
• Business disputes
• Commercial art practice
• Complex civil litigation
• Class actions
• Cryptocurrency and blockchain technology
• Insurance
• Public interest and pro bono
• Shareholder and securities
• Trial
• White collar defense
• Whistleblower and internal investigations

This diversity is not incidental; it reflects our conviction that today's most consequential disputes rarely fit neatly within a single area of law and that meaningful advocacy requires fluency across many.

We approach every matter as both legal advocates and strategic problem-solvers. Our attorneys bring rigorous technical understanding to industries and instruments that many firms are still learning to navigate, from digital assets and blockchain-based systems to the nuanced world of fine art. Within our commercial art practice, we counsel galleries, collectors, dealers and institutions on the transactional and disputed matters that arise across the art market, while our art restitution and cultural property disputes practice reflects a deeper commitment: helping clients pursue the recovery of wrongfully displaced works and navigate the complex historical, ethical and jurisdictional questions that such claims often raise. Few firms combine this cultural property skill with our broader litigation capabilities, and we consider it one of the most distinctive facets of who we are.

We recognize that the pace of technological and economic change has outstripped the capabilities of traditional legal counsel. Businesses, institutions and individuals facing complex, high-value disputes need representation that is as agile and forward-thinking as the challenges they confront. That is the role we have chosen to fill.

Whether representing clients in high-stakes trials, guiding them through intricate arbitration proceedings or conducting sensitive internal investigations, we bring the same combination of intellectual rigor and tenacity to every engagement. Our commitment extends beyond commercial representation alone; through our public interest and pro bono work, we strive to ensure that our skills serve the broader interests of justice and accountability. At Freedman Normand Friedland LLP, we are not simply keeping pace with a changing world. We are building the kind of firm that a changing world requires.
