frazier --
The lawyer in charge of litigation for Goldman Sachs is Vincent J.
LaGreca, Esq. whose title is Managing Director and Director of Global
Litigation. Contact information for Mr. LaGreca is as follows:
Morgan Stanley
Legal Department
1585 Broadway, 39th Floor
New York, New York 10036.
Telephone: 212-761-6321.
Fax: 212-761-0331.
The fact that Mr. LaGreca is the chief litigation officer of Morgan
Stanley can be confirmed online in at least two ways.
First, Morgan Stanley's Legal Department has a detailed entry in
Martindale-Hubbell, an authoritative online and print reference guide
to lawyers and law firms in the U.S. and around the world. That
listing has a separate section for the Morgan Stanley lawyers whose
special area of responsibility is litigation. Mr. LaGreca is listed
there as the first entry. Here is a link to the Martindale.com page
that contains the Morgan Stanley listing:
Martindale.com: Morgan Stanley (scroll about two/thirds down the page
to the litigation section)
http://www.martindale.com/xp/Martindale/Lawyer_Locator/Search_Lawyer_Locator/search_detail.xml?pos=2&FN=morgan%20stanley&CN=&CTY=&STS=&CRY=1&STYPE=C&CP=1&ft=1&lid=498659&hp=1&PRV=LL2&RR=7
The address and phone/fax numbers for the Legal Department (which are
different from those of Morgan Stanley's headquarters address) are
listed near the top of that linked page.
Also note that the entry for each lawyer, including Mr. LaGreca,
contains a link to an e-mail form. Although the form is not entirely
clear and the recipient lawyer's individual e-mail address is not
contained in the form (to prevent spam), messages sent using this
mechanism appear to be forwarded directly to the individual lawyer to
whom a message is addressed.
Finally, confirmation that Mr. LaGreca is indeed the chief of
litigation at Morgan Stanley is contained at the following link
(scroll to item 29 on the list):
Law.com: The NLJ Client List: Who Defends Corporate America
http://www.law.com/special/professionals/nlj/2002/nlj_client_list_who_defends_corporate_america.shtml
Your special interest seems to be "litigation support" activities.
Based on my experience of many years as a member of the law department
of a major corporation, Mr. LaGreca's responsibilities as head of the
litigation section of the Legal Department would include litigation
support activities. Although day-to-day management of these
activities would be supervised by a lower level attorney or a
non-lawyer employee, Mr. LaGreca -- or any other member of the
litigation section -- would certainly be able to identify that
employee for you.
The Martindale-Hubbell listing for the litigation section does include
one important clue in that regard, if you choose to pursue it.
William B. Peterson, who is listed near the bottom of the litigation
section (and about nine-tenths down the entire Legal Department
listing) has the responsibility of "Department Administrator." This
title may well reflect duties involving supervision of litigation
support activities. Contacting him can be accomplished with the same
telephone and fax numbers listed above, or by using the e-mail form in
his Martindale-Hubbell listing.
Search Strategy:
I am familiar with the Martindale-Hubbell reference and its separate
section for corporate law departments. I started there and identified
Mr. LaGreca as the probable head of the firm's litigation activities.
I found the confirmation of this at Law.com, by using the following
simple Google search:
"vincent lagreca"
://www.google.com/search?sourceid=navclient&q=vincent+lagreca
I am confident that this is the information you are seeking. If
anything is unclear, or if there is any problem accessing the links
provided, please ask for clarification before rating this answer.
