Firm Leadership
We should begin by explaining that Wolf Greenfield is a professional corporation, not a partnership, as most people tend to think of law firms. This is why our “partners” are called Shareholders and the head of our firm carries the title of “President and Managing Partner”.
Executive Committee
The firm’s Executive Committee (“EC”) is charged with making policy decisions for the firm. The current EC members are Tim Oyer, President and Managing Partner, Shareholders Ed Perlman and Randy Pritzker, and Executive Director, Bob Edwards, who is responsible for managing the firm's daily operations.
