Marc Dreier Biography
Marc Dreier is one of the most popular and richest Lawyer who was born on May 12, 1950 in Long Island, New York, United States.
Kosta S. Kovachev was the son of two doctors who emigrated from Serbia in 1964 and set up practices in New York City. He was born in Belgrade, was educated at Columbia University and Harvard Business School, and joined Morgan Stanley in 1987. He left there after five years for a succession of smaller, obscure firms, then voluntarily gave up his broker’s license in 2002. In 2006, he lost his broker’s license from the National Association of Securities Dealers after being implicated in a $28 million Ponzi scheme. He refused to cooperate with investigators, and eventually paid more than $350,000 penalties and interest to settle the matter, while admitting no wrongdoing. Dreier was Kovachev’s lawyer during that case.
Marc Dreier grew up on the south shore of Long Island in an affluent area known as the Five Towns. His father, a Jewish immigrant from Poland, owned a chain of movie theaters. Dreier presided over the Lawrence High School student council, and graduated “most likely to succeed”. He graduated from Yale University in 1972 with a Bachelor of Arts and earned a Juris Doctor from Harvard Law School in 1975. He began his career as a “shining star” in the late 1970s at Rosenman & Colin, Freund, Lewis & Cohen, then a 90-lawyer litigation firm, and was well regarded. “He was a very smart, hard-working guy….Funny, personable – part of the social mix”, but what most distinguished him was his ability to think on his feet. “He’s very quick. Very smart.”

In 1989, he joined the New York office of Fulbright & Jaworski. Dreier would become co-head of litigation in New York, but when Dreier left Fulbright in March 1995, there were only ten New York litigators. He then worked for Duker & Barrett for less than two years. Its founding partner, William Duker, would later plead guilty to four counts of fraud called “one of the most serious cases of legal fraud” ever prosecuted. In 1996, he teamed with a Florida lawyer named Neil Baritz, who had a small corporate and securities practice, to found a firm called Dreier & Baritz. Though he was able to found the firm, a precursor to Dreier LLP, he struggled to distinguish his practice.
From 1998 to 2006, Dreier handled much litigation for Sheldon Solow, a billionaire real estate dealmaker. The most recent case was the unsuccessful eviction of Bank of America Securities LLC from his flagship Manhattan building, 9 West 57th St., on the dubious grounds that one of the bank’s brokers had been accused of illegal trading.

In the early 1980s, Dreier was named a partner at Rosenman. In 1987, he married a Rosenman associate named Elisa Peters. He and his wife separated in 2000, around the time that Dreier broke with a partner and started his own firm.
In 2000, Solow decided to litigate for ownership of a $10 million oceanfront house in East Hampton. Peter Morton, co-founder of the Hard Rock Cafe restaurant chain, had signed a contract to purchase the home from Dr. Gary Feldstein. Solow tried to break their contract and buy the place himself. Years of litigation ensued. Dreier filed suits in state courts in Manhattan and Suffolk County, in federal court in both the Eastern and Southern Districts of New York, in bankruptcy court in Florida, and in several corresponding appellate courts. “He had a certain glibness, this certainty that he could get away with that which other lawyers couldn’t”, says Feldstein’s lawyer, Kevin Smith, whom Dreier named as a defendant in one of the suits. “He was like Gatsby without the charm.” In 2003, the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, citing their “extensive history of persistent, repetitive, and vexatious litigation”, ordered Solow and Dreier to pay double costs to Morton and Feldstein. The litigation cost Solow an estimated $6 million in legal fees, much of it going to Dreier.
