Baker & Hostetler Bolsters Crypto Dispute Team

Baker & Hostetler is doubling down on its digital assets expertise by launching a new team dedicated to handling cryptocurrency disputes. The firm has assembled a team of 25 attorneys who will focus on litigation and arbitration involving crypto assets, blockchain technology, and emerging digital markets.

The team's leader is Joanna Wasick, a seasoned New York-based litigator with experience in digital assets dating back to 2014. She began advising clients on securities law issues arising from Bitcoin transactions during that time.

Baker & Hostetler's move follows its reputation as a leading player in the digital assets world. The firm is building on this expertise by creating a dedicated team to handle the growing number of disputes related to cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology.
