NEW YORK, January 10, 2024--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Approaching its fifth anniversary, leading New York trial boutique Mukasey Frenchman LLP has been renamed Mukasey Young LLP. The change reflects the departure of co-founder Robert S. Frenchman and a new leadership role for Torrey K. Young as a name partner.
Mr. Frenchman leaves after a long and successful run working alongside co-founder Marc L. Mukasey at three separate law firms. The pair partnered on many high-profile representations, including insider trading cases, mortgage-backed securities matters, crypto cases, SEC and CFTC investigations and enforcement actions, and a "spoofing" trial that resulted in a full acquittal. Their collaboration achieved many favorable results for clients, whether individuals or corporate.
Mr. Mukasey said, "Bob always brought informed insight, deep substantive knowledge, a tireless work ethic and unwavering devotion to our clients and the firm. We are supportive of Bob’s decision and we are profoundly grateful for his contributions, and we hope to work with him whenever we can in the future."
Mr. Frenchman stated, "It was a dream of mine to build a boutique firm where I could practice at the highest level for great clients. I did that and now I’m gearing up for my next adventure, which will be announced soon. On a personal and professional level, my bond with Marc will always remain strong."
