Note: This article has been corrected to reflect Ryan Naftulin’s title within Cooleys business department. He is vice chairman.
When Cooley decided to move its Washington digs from D.C.’s Chinatown neighborhood to the 13-story Warner Building on Pennsylvania Avenue, it was primarily to accommodate the strong growth of the office. Since December 2011, the firm has expanded from 53 attorneys to about 85. Cooley moved into its new office at 1299 Pennsylvania Ave. N.W. on New Year’s Eve. Ryan Naftulin, Cooley’s Washington partner-in-charge, gave Legal Times a tour of the space and talked about the growth of the office, its robust areas of practice and cycling. Naftulin has been both office partner-in-charge and firm vice chairman of Cooleys business department since the first quarter of 2011.
