The Nutritional and Dietary Supplement Law Blog is pleased as punch to announce that Joel B. Rothman, your faithful editor and publisher, has joined the West Palm Beach office of Arnstein & Lehr LLP as a partner.

As many of our readers know, I devote a substantial portion of my practice to representing dietary supplement companies in regulatory matters, transactions and litigation, including intellectual property disputes and licensing.  That is one of the reasons why I started the Nutritional and Dietary Supplement Law Blog almost four years ago, and it’s why I chose to bring my practice to Arnstein & Lehr.

Arnstein has an excellent Health Care Practice Group and I hope to contribute my knowledge of supplement regulatory issues to assist existing and new firm clients.  Furthermore, my specialty in intellectual property will help me support and grow the Intellectual Property Practice Group at the firm.

I am especially excited to be working with veteran trademark lawyer Judy Grubner of Arnstein’s Chicago Office.  Judy has over thirty years experience registering trademarks for some of the biggest brands around.  I am so fortunate to have Judy as a resource to help my supplement clients manage and grow their trademark portfolios and protect their brands.

Arnstein & Lehr was founded in 1893 and is currently home to over 150 lawyers practicing in Chicago, Wisconsin, Florida and beyond.  I am pleased to have the opportunity to offer the depth and breadth of resources of this great firm to my wonderful clients who have supported me over the years.

I encourge all our readers to spend a few minutes at the Arnstein & Lehr website and get to know the firm and its capabilities.  Please contact me if Arnstein & Lehr can help you or your business in any way.  You can find all my contact information on my bio page here.  I can’t wait to hear from you!
