Dunnington, Bartholow & Miller, LLP recently defeated a summary judgment motion in a lawsuit brought by its client, a venture capital firm, seeking payment for shares of a portfolio company sold to outside investors.
On November 14, 2013, Dunnington, Bartholow & Miller LLP triumphed in a major case for Germany’s Vorderasiatisches Museum (part of the Pergamon Museum), obtaining the return of a 3,200-year-old Assyrian amulet in a landmark decision, Matter of Flamenbaum, by the New York Court of Appeals, New York’s highest court.

CICERO is an international network of independent law firms, primarily in the corporate, commercial, and property sectors, which allows members to gain access to and collaborate with law firms in other jurisdictions.
