|
Cohen & Gresser is pleased to announce the opening of its office in Paris, France - the firm's first office in Europe and its second office outside the United States. The firm plans to use the new office to serve its existing European clients and grow its practice in France and elsewhere in Europe, particularly in the areas of cross-border mergers and acquisitions, corporate transactions, international litigation and arbitration, and employment and labor law.
The Paris office will be led by partner Johannes Jonas, who joins the firm from Dentons (formerly Salans) in Paris. Mr. Jonas has over twenty-five years of experience managing sophisticated transactions for European, North American and Asian clients. His practice focuses on cross-border transactions and investments, mergers and acquisitions, and employment and labor law. Licensed to practice law in France, Germany, and New York, Mr. Jonas maintains a large base of international clients, including German clients doing business in France as well as a range of foreign clients who invest in Germany.

We have worked together for common clients in the past, and I am impressed with this law firm's vision in rapidly changing times.

Lawrence T. Gresser, managing partner of Cohen & Gresser, said: "After opening in Seoul, Korea last year, we are thrilled to open our first European office and to welcome Johannes Jonas to the firm. I have known and worked with Johannes since we both started practicing law over twenty-five years ago in New York, and I know that he shares our commitment to understanding each client's business, anticipating their needs, and providing superb, cost- effective client service."
