About
Recently, my partners and I have addressed corporate litigation with respect to control of the board, investors' rights, and consumer protection (including class actions).
I have a particular expertise in the litigation aspects of international law, including overseas corps., trusts, and other asset protection vehicles - and Hague Convention service to bring foreign entities into American courts.

Client Reviews
"One of the best experiences I've had working with an attorney. Baruch was easy to work with explaining everything in a way that you can understand. All communications and work was completed in a timely manner so there was no wondering what the status of the project was. His knowledge on the issue was vast and more than willing to go over any options and outcomes. If you are in need of trademark or intellectual property services then I would highly recommend contacting Baruch for any of these matters."
"Mr. Gottesman was very clear in his responses and they were always done in a timely manner - he really goes out of his way to understand the situation completely and to support the cause that is in our best interest"
"Batch is excellent, fast, patient and VERY good. He's stellar to work with."
"Baruch was a lifesaver. He is very generous with his knowledge and goes above and beyond to thoroughly and clearly address all aspects of the question including some I would never have thought of. Although he's very adept in his niche- Baruch is skilled at putting complicated concepts in lay-man's terms, thus ensuring his clients are completely understanding the actions they're taking. I would heartily recommend Baruch and look forward to working with him again in the future."
"Extremely, communicative, fast and knowledgeable!"
"Agudath Israel of America is a national religious advocacy group that has worked with Baruch Gottesman, Esq., since 2008. Baruch has advised our members on religious liberty issues, spoken at Not-for-Profit compliance conferences we organized, and has consistently been a knowledgeable contributor to issues of nonprofit management, religious liberty, and § 501(c)(3) compliance. Baruch has particularly earned a reputation with respect to American nonprofits organizations operating overseas (OFAC Compliance, etc . . .), foundations engaged in creative endeavors, and for successfully defending the religious and other First Amendment rights of his clients."
