McKool Smith, a 175-lawyer firm not included in the Am Law 200 rankings because it generates more than 50 percent of its annual gross revenue from plaintiffs-side contingency work, is bringing on a team of lawyers from Kasowitz, Benson, Torres & Friedman in New York led by insurance recovery head Robin Cohen.
Cohen, a former head of Dickstein Shapiro’s New York office, led a 13-lawyer team that decamped from that firm in January 2010 for Kasowitz Benson. McKool Smith is now poised to launch an insurance litigation recovery team after adding Cohen and fellow Kasowitz Benson partners Kenneth Frenchman, Burt Garson, Keith McKenna, Natasha Romagnoli, Elizabeth Sherwin and Adam Ziffer. All are based in New York and previously practiced with one another at Dickstein Shapiro, a firm currently dealing with its own partnership turmoil.
