Ilana H. Eisenstein is the firm's Chair of Litigation.

She is one of the rare lawyers who combines first-chair trial experience with an appellate specialty. Ilana has seen cases through every stage of litigation – from investigation, trials, and appeals to the US Supreme Court.

With a flexible approach to multi-faceted disputes that include civil, criminal, administrative and regulatory components, Ilana helps clients solve their most complex and high-exposure problems.

She is noted for her ability to unravel the individual threads in complicated legal issues. She is particularly adept at developing and managing legal strategy for multi-district litigation and government-facing litigation, and she has deep experience in the life sciences, health care, consumer goods and technology sectors.

Ilana has argued five cases before the US Supreme Court, including cases involving novel questions of statutory interpretation and constitutional law and procedure. She has tried more than a dozen federal jury trials to verdict and led more than 100 federal and state cases to resolution. She previously served as a federal prosecutor and an Assistant to the US Solicitor General with the US Department of Justice (DOJ).
