What You Need to Know

  • CEO Scott Cessar reached out to the group of commercial litigators shortly after he started in the role last May.
  • The firm is reaching out to recruiters to help bring in fresh talent as well as charging its current attorneys with being ‘ambassadors to the firm.’
  • Eckert’s attorney head count has dropped over 100 since 2019.

Following a suite of leadership changes, a group of three former litigators are rejoining Eckert Seamans Cherin & Mellott in a prelude to the firm’s aggressive 2024 growth strategy. 

Since November, the firm has announced new leaders across four of its offices, including its main hub in Pittsburgh, as well as installed its first chief operating officer in a decade under the management of firm CEO Scott Cessar, who himself ascended to the position last May.
