A partner in the Litigation Department, Andrew J. Ehrlich has experience representing clients on a broad variety of commercial litigation matters, specializing in complex securities litigation and regulatory defense. Mr. Ehrlich has expertise in representing clients in complex, and often high-profile, matters involving federal and state regulatory inquiries, as well as civil litigation in multiple jurisdictions. Mr. Ehrlich has been a member of the winning trial teams in two of the most significant recent commercial cases to be tried to conclusion. Most recently, Mr. Ehrlich was part of the team that successfully defended Citigroup, in New Jersey state court, against claims arising out of the collapse of Parmalat, defeating claims worth more than $10 billion and achieving a $365 million counterclaim jury verdict for Citigroup. Mr. Ehrlich also successfully defended Citigroup and Salomon Smith Barney against a $900 million fraud and breach of fiduciary duty claim, the second-largest arbitration case ever filed with the NASD. After a three-week hearing in Denver, the arbitrators ruled for Citigroup and Salomon Smith Barney, and dismissed all claims in their entirety.
