Practice Profile: Eileen M. Patt is a partner in Kramer Levin's litigation department, where she maintains a diverse practice with a focus on advertising matters. Eileen represents global brands in false advertising disputes in consumer class action litigation throughout the country, as well as litigation under the federal Lanham Act and in challenges before the National Advertising Division and the National Advertising Review Board.
