LINDA KORNFELD • Partner and Vice Chair, Insurance Recovery
Lawdragon calls Linda Kornfeld, Blank Rome partner and vice chair of its nationally recognized Insurance Recovery Practice, “a card-carrying member of the ultra-elite club of insurance recovery specialists.” She is at the top of the highly competitive, male-dominated insurance policyholder bar—one of only three women ranked nationally by the prestigious Chambers USA. Kornfeld has more than 25 years of experience representing corporate policyholders in high-stakes litigation, recovering hundreds of millions of dollars for her clients. While some attorneys fight every fight, she cuts through disputes, building consensus, and solving intricate problems to find favorable resolutions for her clients. She is well known for her innovative approach, having, on multiple occasions, set precedents in court which created new law. Kornfeld handles coverage matters that are frequently in the news, including Covid-19 business interruption cases, data breaches, child sex abuse cases, wildfires, and other natural disaster events.
STACY D. PHILLIPS • Partner, Matrimonial & Family Law
Stacy D. Phillips is one of the country’s most well-known and respected family law practitioners, handling primarily high net worth and high-profile divorce, custody, and domestic violence cases. She has guided clients through critical transitions in their lives for more than 36 years. She is known for her skilled persuasion, adept negotiation, aggressive advocacy, and compassion in representing her clients, whether in litigation, mediation, or Collaborative Divorce. In a recent case, Phillips was retained by an internationally famous music star in a complex child custody and child support matter worth tens of millions of dollars. Her role is central to the negotiations, which are ongoing and could erupt into litigation, and likely will continue for years. She is managing attorneys and custody and support laws in three countries. Phillips is also an author, philanthropist, mentor, and sought-after speaker and commentator on family law issues.
