LOS ANGELES – July 25, 2023 –Mathew S. Rosengart, a shareholder in global law firm Greenberg Traurig, LLP, again was named to the “Leaders of Influence: Litigators & Trial Attorneys” list by the Los Angeles Business Journal as one of “the trusted advisors you want in your corner in court.” The publication further characterized Rosengart as “one of the nation’s foremost trial lawyers.”
The Los Angeles Business Journal recently named Rosengart to its 2023 “Top 100 Lawyers” and “LA500” lists and previously has recognized him as “one of the nation’s preeminent litigators” who are “masters of their craft,” and a “go-to litigator for Hollywood’s elite and Corporate America.”
Rosengart, a former federal prosecutor and Justice Department Trial Attorney, recently was described by his long-time client Sean Penn as “a tough as nails streetfighter with a big brain and bigger principles.” He also has been called a “legal powerhouse,” a “powerful litigator,” a “legendary legal warrior” who is “principled,” and a “heavyweight” and “high powered lawyer” by Yahoo News, Newsweek, ABC, The Guardian, and Law360. Prior to leading the historic fight to suspend Britney Spears’ father as her conservator, Rosengart was described by NPR as a lawyer with “a lot of star power” and by LA Magazine as a “winner” and “heavy hitter” with “a long history of getting results for his big-name clients.” When recently presenting him with the Beverly Hills Bar Association’s Excellence in Advocacy Award, retired United States Supreme Court Justice David Souter praised Rosengart’s intellect and integrity.
He has received numerous accolades throughout his career, including being named Litigator of the Week by The American Lawyer; one of the Top 100 lawyers in California by the Daily Journal; a Sports & Entertainment Trailblazer by The National Law Journal, and a Law360 “MVP” for Media & Entertainment, which recognized the “elite slate of attorneys” who “have distinguished themselves in high-stakes litigation.” He also has been recognized perennially by The Hollywood Reporter and Variety as one of the nation’s leading media and entertainment litigators, was named a “Litigation Star” and shortlisted as Entertainment Litigator of the Year by Benchmark Litigation, and was recently recognized by The Legal 500 as a “heavy-hitting trial lawyer.”
