Longtime NJBIA member Saiber LLC on Tuesday announced the addition of Marc D. Freedman as member and Steven M. Friedland as counsel in a move that strengthens the Florham Park law firm’s Business Services and Employment practices.
This strategic expansion reflects Saiber’s commitment to strengthening its corporate and M&A capabilities, with a particular focus on industry-specific solutions for clients in the staffing sector and beyond.
Both attorneys join Saiber from the boutique firm Freedman & Friedland LLC of Hasbrouck Heights, bringing decades of experience in corporate and employment law, particularly within the staffing industry.
Freedman, a seasoned corporate attorney, joins the firm’s Business Services group as a member. With an extensive background in employment and corporate law and mergers & acquisitions, he brings deep knowledge of the legal and business issues impacting staffing companies and other industries.
He previously served as general counsel and senior executive officer for one of the largest public companies in the temporary employment sector. His wide-ranging experience includes corporate acquisitions, securities compliance, labor relations, defending employers in discrimination matters and class actions, restrictive covenant litigation, risk management, and strategic consulting for senior executives.
Freedman is currently general counsel to the New Jersey Staffing Alliance and formerly served in similar roles with national staffing associations.
Friedland will join the firm as counsel in the Litigation practice group. With a focus on employment law and litigation, he brings over two decades of experience defending employers in discrimination, harassment, retaliation, and wage and hour matters before federal and state courts and administrative agencies, as well as representing businesses in commercial litigation.
He also regularly counsels clients on day-to-day workplace matters and drafts various agreements, policies, and compliance materials. Previously, Friedland practiced employment and labor law at two firms with a national presence.
“We are thrilled to welcome Marc and Steve to Saiber,” said Nino Coviello, co-managing member of the firm and a leader of the Business Services practice group. “Marc’s reputation as a trusted advisor and his extensive leadership within the staffing industry will be a significant asset to our firm and clients. In addition, Steve’s litigation experience complements our growing employment and business litigation capabilities.”
Ami Foger, also a leader in the firm’s Business Services practice, added, “Marc and Steve bring a dynamic mix of transactional, employment and litigation experience that will further enhance the services we provide. Their longstanding client relationships will be instrumental as we continue to expand our corporate and M&A platform.”
Freedman shared his enthusiasm about joining Saiber: “I’m excited to join a firm with the depth and breadth of talent that Saiber offers. Leveraging the Firm’s vast resources will allow me to better serve my clients and expand the impact of our work.”
