About Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft LLP
Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft LLP is a law firm whose origins date to 1792, with its headquarters at 200 Liberty Street in Lower Manhattan. Its client base has included financial institutions, investment fund sponsors, large corporations, government entities, charitable and health care organizations, and private individuals. Its lawyers worked across areas such as antitrust, banking, bankruptcy, corporate finance, litigation, real estate, and tax.
Beyond New York, the firm had offices in Washington, D.C., Charlotte, North Carolina, London, and Dublin. In December 2025 it announced a merger with Hogan Lovells to form Hogan Lovells Cadwalader, and according to one reference source the combined firm began operations in July 2026. Registry entries under this name may therefore no longer reflect an active standalone practice.
