Over the past 38 years at Wilentz, Cifaldi has served in several senior leadership capacities, including as a member of the Management Committee and as Co-Chair of the Mass Tort/Class Action and Cannabis Law groups. He most recently served as Assistant Managing Director, where he played a leading role in directing the Firm’s operations and response during the COVID-19 public health emergency. “The manner in which Boards directed their organization during the peak of the pandemic was a critical factor in the ability to emerge from the crisis. At Wilentz, we have pushed forward into this new era and continue to support all of our clients’ needs,” said Cifaldi.
