About Us

We maintain long-term relationships by providing sound advice, quality legal work and highly responsive, personalized service.

Since 1957 we have earned our international reputation as a leading intellectual property law firm. We also have successfully represented clients in the areas of litigation, commercial and corporate law, real estate, trusts and estates and private client services. More recently we have expanded our practice to information technology law as well as customs, international trade and transportation law.

Here are some notable highlights:

• Disputes: We are committed to attempting early dispute resolution whenever appropriate and possible, but we are tough litigators whenever necessary.
  
  
• Customs: We have expanded into Customs, International Trade & Transportation law. Click here for directions to our JFK International Airport Office.
  
  
• Fashion: CLL is in fashion! Our recent seminar, "International Challenges Facing Designers and Fashion Executives", which we developed in consultation with the Council of Fashion Designers of America, was a big success. If you would like to be invited to our next seminar for the Fashion Industry, please send your name and address to ihk@cll.com.
