Our Firm launched with six founding partners in February 2024—but our team has a long history together that started nearly 15 years ago when our name partners David Elsberg, Rollo Baker and Silpa Maruri first started working together. Each of them is a former Co-Chair of a practice group at Quinn Emanuel, where they worked together closely on many litigations, arbitrations and trials along with another one of our founding partners, Jared Ruocco. David Elsberg was Co-Chair of Quinn’s Investment Fund Practice, Rollo Baker was Co-Chair of the Corporate Governance Practice, and Silpa Maruri was Co-Chair of the Delaware Litigation Practice. Likewise, three of our founding partners, David Elsberg, Michael Duke and Vivek Tata, were previously partners at Selendy Gay Elsberg where they worked together closely for years on a wide array of cases. Our team has a long track record of success.

Elsberg Baker & Maruri is an elite commercial trial, litigation, and arbitration firm comprised of some of the nation’s top trial lawyers. Our attorneys are consistently on the cutting edge of major commercial litigation and have acted as trial counsel in some of the most important and precedent-setting business trials and arbitrations, including matters arising from multibillion-dollar disputes involving busted M&A deals, corporate governance, complex contracts, energy, investment funds, violation of investment guidelines, computer hardware and software, breach of fiduciary duties, bond indentures, securities, fraudulent transfers, insolvency and major bankruptcy proceedings, and more. Above all, we are dedicated to achieving success for our clients and servicing their needs whenever and however they arise. We take pride in developing bold and creative strategies and relentlessly pursuing victory at all stages of the case.
