Seward & Kissel LLP announced today that Anton Levchik joined the firm as its Chief Financial Officer. Levchik comes to Seward & Kissel LLP from Foley Hoag LLP where he held the same position. He brings significant experience leading financial operations of professional services organizations. Prior to Foley Hoag LLP, he served in senior finance roles across several global law firms: Clyde & Co., Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer LLP, and Linklaters LLP.

“Adding Anton to the executive team is yet another strategic move to provide our world-class lawyers with equally talented leadership across the firm,” said Jim Cofer, managing partner of Seward & Kissel. “His financial stewardship will strengthen our firm’s foundation as we proceed toward an exciting future.”

Seward & Kissel has made a series of key executive hires in the last two years strengthening the firm’s leadership at a time of strategic growth. Earlier this year, Nora Shearer, the former chief marketing officer at Shearman & Sterling, joined as chief marketing and business development officer. Andrew Notaro became the first-ever chief operating officer of Seward & Kissel in 2022 after serving at other elite firms, including Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom and Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe. In addition, Mary Walls was recently promoted to chief talent officer, a new position at the firm created to execute on the firm’s lateral strategy.

“We’re striving to build a best-in-class team in the C-suite of Seward & Kissel,” Notaro said. “Anton’s knowledge and experience in the legal sector certainly fit the bill.”

“I’m thrilled to be joining a firm with Seward & Kissel’s reputation,” Levchik said. “The opportunity to work with such a talented group of lawyers is extremely exciting.”

Levchik is a certified public accountant. He holds an MBA from the New York University’s Stern School of Business and a Bachelor of Science degree in accounting from Fordham University.
