Why it matters

Greenberg Traurig LLP has hired Scott Weingaertner and Stefan Mentzer as shareholders in its New York office, bringing both laterally from Goodwin Procter LLP to bolster its intellectual property litigation practice. The firm announced the move on June 10, 2026, positioning the additions as a strategic expansion at the intersection of IP and technology work. Both lawyers are veteran IP litigators with extensive technology backgrounds.

The specific scope of their practice focus and client portfolio at Greenberg Traurig has not been detailed beyond the firm's statement that the hires strengthen its global IP enforcement, protection, and strategic counseling capabilities.

For practitioners, the move reflects the ongoing competition among major firms to secure senior IP litigators as technology-driven disputes remain a core strategic area. Attorneys handling complex IP matters—particularly those involving emerging technologies—should monitor how Greenberg Traurig deploys these additions and whether the firm signals new service offerings or sector focus in technology litigation.
