AlixPartners Add Tom Barnett to their E-Team

Published by Mark Reichenbach at 1:53 am under General

And that “E” in E-Team already stood for excellence.

AlixPartners was very strong under the leadership of Matt Cohen, ex-Skadden litigator and industry eDiscovery expert, but now they’re even stronger.

Tom brings an amazing amount of experience from his time as a litigator for such firms as Rogers and Wells (now Clifford Chance), Wilson Sonsini and most recently as special counsel of eDiscovery at Sullivan & Cromwell, here in New York.  The department Tom built  at S&C is impressive.

I’ve had the pleasure of knowing Tom for many many years, and I believe that with his addition, AlixPartners now have perhaps the best pure eDiscovery advisory tandem in the game today.

Tom has a rich background in eDiscovery and has served as General Counsel for both EED and SPI in the litigation technology industry. He’s also a killer saxophone player (pro-level, Toots and The Maytalls)  You read that here first.

Both Matt and Tom are fellow Sedona-mates and Georgetown Law CLE colleagues. They are also two of the kindest and most ethical gentlemen in our field. I am proud to be associated with them by way of those two organizations.

Congratulations to Matt Cohen on a great addition to his team and congratulations to Tom Barnett for a job well done at Sullivan & Cromwell and a great ride ahead.
