Barry F. Levin serves as managing partner of Saul Ewing Arnstein & Lehr LLP and is the chief executive officer of the Firm with responsibility for overseeing its daily operations, client relations, strategic planning and business development. Barry draws upon his 35 years of experience as outside general counsel to a multitude of different clients in a wide variety of industries in leading Saul Ewing Arnstein & Lehr's national practice through its 16 offices located down the East Coast from Boston to Miami and west to Minneapolis. Clients ranging from retailers, manufacturers and distributors to real estate businesses and dental practices trust Barry's legal advice and counsel for mergers and acquisitions, financings, franchising issues, licensing, real estate deals and general corporate matters. Barry's clients span from entrepreneurial technology developers to Fortune 500 companies, and he has represented businesses in matters relating to their start-up, financial turnaround, and transition to new ownership, including next generation executive transitions. Privately held business owners seeking help with complex estate and trust planning and administration also turn to Barry for legal advice. Barry's other engagements include providing hundreds of medical and dental practices across the country with legal advice and counsel on ownership transitions. Transitions include structuring, negotiating, documenting and implementing associateships or employee arrangements, partnerships, acquisitions and sales. Doctors, dentists and other healthcare professionals and the business entities in which they practice, particularly those involved in disputes, also hire Barry as outside general counsel to assist in resolving their differences. While Barry aims to resolve these disagreements through mediation or other alternative dispute resolution mechanisms, he is experienced at managing litigation among doctors, dentists and other healthcare professionals whose differences cannot be resolved. In addition to his work for legal clients, Barry has taken on a variety of management roles at many levels during his tenure with Saul Ewing Arnstein & Lehr. This includes serving on a previous managing partner's management team, acting as the Firm's marketing partner and chairing the Business and Finance Practice. This broad experience has positioned Barry to both understand the interworking of Saul Ewing Arnstein & Lehr's business operations, and stay attuned to the needs of the Firm's clients.
