(Washington, DC) – Dickstein Shapiro is officially shortening its name from Dickstein Shapiro Morin & Oshinsky LLP to Dickstein Shapiro LLP, effective July 1, 2006.

“The shortening of the firm’s name to Dickstein Shapiro reflects our more commonly used name in the marketplace. This in no way diminishes the tremendous positive influence of our former name partners on the growth and success of the firm,” said Dickstein Shapiro’s Managing Partner Michael Nannes. “Jerry Oshinsky continues to provide leadership for the firm’s premier insurance coverage practice and is instrumental in the development of the firm’s overall strategic direction.”
