NEW YORK (PRWEB) October 03, 2019 -- Laura Siegel Rabinowitz has joined the New York office of global law firm Greenberg Traurig, LLP as a shareholder in its International Trade Practice. She was special counsel at Kelley Drye & Warren, LLP prior to joining the firm.

“Greenberg Traurig’s global reputation, specifically in the international trade arena and its well-known culture of collaboration across sectors and markets, drew me to the firm,” Siegel Rabinowitz said.
Siegel Rabinowitz counsels domestic and multinational businesses on complex supply chain issues and other complicated challenges associated with trade, including mitigation of increased duty liability and compliance matters.
