Susman Godfrey is pleased to share that Los Angeles partner Krysta Pachman has been named an honoree for Lawyers on the Fast Track and partner Rohit Nath has been named a finalist for Intellectual Property Attorney of the Year as part of the 2026 California Legal Awards, presented by The Recorder.
Krysta is being recognized for her standout work in high-stakes commercial litigation, including her role in Susman Godfrey’s landmark victory for Everly Health in its dispute with Walgreens. Krysta helped secure a $987 million arbitration award in the closely watched Lanham Act and breach-of-contract matter—one of the firm’s most significant wins of the year and a result that underscores her growing reputation as a formidable trial lawyer in California.
Rohit’s finalist recognition reflects his leadership representing authors and rightsholders in litigation over the use of copyrighted materials to train artificial intelligence models. These include groundbreaking cases against Anthropic, OpenAI, NVIDIA, and Apple. These recognitions reflect Susman Godfrey’s continued strength in complex commercial and intellectual property litigation—and the depth of trial talent the firm continues to bring to its most consequential matters.
