Offit Kurman Appoints Attorneys Sidney Washington and Marc P. Misthal as New Practice Group Leaders

October 11, 2024

Offit Kurman is pleased to announce the appointments of Sidney Washington as leader of the Landlord Representation Practice Group and Marc P.  Misthal as leader of the Intellectual Property Practice Group, effective October 1, 2024. Sidney and Marc are well-equipped to oversee and support the continued growth and success of these key practice areas.

Sidney, a principal attorney in Tysons Corner, VA, succeeds Brian Dorwin, who led the Landlord Representation Practice Group since late 2022. Under Brian’s leadership, the group has flourished, achieving significant growth. Sidney’s proven dedication to her clients and deep understanding of landlord representation make her an excellent choice to continue building on this success.

Marc, a principal attorney in our New York office, will assume leadership of the Intellectual Property Practice Group from Laura Winston, who has led the group since early 2022. During her tenure, Laura expanded the group’s reach to new markets, including Los Angeles, Philadelphia, and South Carolina, enhancing Offit Kurman’s national intellectual property presence. Marc’s strategic approach and extensive IP experience will ensure that the group proceeds to thrive and broaden its influence.

We congratulate Sidney and Marc on their new roles and are confident that their leadership will shape the future of their respective practice groups for the better, furthering Offit Kurman’s commitment to delivering exceptional service and results to our clients.
