Loeb & Loeb is pleased to announce the arrival of a group of Chambers-ranked art and cultural property lawyers to the firm’s New York office. Led by partner Diana Wierbicki, the team also includes partner Amanda Rottermund, senior counsel Georges Lederman and associate Kenley Stark. The group joins Loeb & Loeb’s private client practice group from Withers Bergman LLP.
The group is recognized internationally as one of the leading teams focused on art and cultural property law representing sophisticated clients in some of the largest and most complex transactions year-over-year. They have assisted with matters that set valuable industry precedent and served in leadership positions in the art sector. The team offers in-depth insight into the global art market, advises on ground-breaking transactions involving billions of dollars of art, represents clients in art disputes, and serves as counsel to high-profile collectors, investors, fiduciaries, dealers, galleries, artists and institutions.
Wierbicki is a frequent speaker on a variety of art law issues and has been featured in Forbes and The New York Times, and on CNN, Bloomberg Business and the BBC. She is also the co-author of the Fifth Edition of Art Law: The Guide for Collectors, Investors, Dealers & Artists.
“Diana and the team are at the top of their field and bring to Loeb a deep expertise in all aspects of art law,” said Cristine Sapers, co-chair of Loeb & Loeb’s Trusts & Estates department. “Their breadth and depth of experience advising on all aspects of art matters, whether representing high net worth individuals or noted institutions, greatly enhances the services we can provide to clients who are contemplating acquiring or transferring significant art holdings.”
“Loeb has one of the most distinguished private client practices in the country,” said Wierbicki, on behalf of the group. “We are not only delighted to join this experienced team and continue to work with individuals and families on their art law needs, but also to collaborate with other leading practices at Loeb that have significant intersections with art law.”
“Diana and Amanda’s broad understanding of art law is an important growth area for our firm’s international private client practice,” said Alyse Pelavin, co-chair of the firm’s Trusts & Estates department. “We have been co-counsel on numerous matters over the years, and we are pleased to have them be a part of our continued growth.”
Wierbicki and Rottermund are the firm’s eighteenth and nineteenth lateral partner arrivals this year and, more specifically, they are the latest of six new partners joining the firm’s private client practice group so far in 2024.
