Alumnus Todd Cosenza ’98 earned a spot in Law360’s 2017 Banking MVPs.
As vice chair of Willkie Farr & Gallagher LLP’s securities litigation team, Todd Cosenza has had another year of successes representing high-profile financial institutions, including foiling a multibillion-dollar case against Barclays at New York’s highest court, earning him a spot as one of Law360’s 2017 Banking MVPs.

Cosenza said his career as a banking attorney has been both “very challenging and rewarding,” and he enjoys passing on his hard-won lessons to up-and-comers in the legal field. The attorney spends time mentoring junior associates at Willkie, but also law students at his alma mater, Fordham University in the Bronx.
But it’s the everyday experience of working his cases where Cosenza finds the most satisfaction.
“I take great pride in coming into the office and working with such great clients, and working with so many talented attorneys,” Cosenza said. “I like the challenge of dealing with knotty problems and thinking of creative solutions to problems.”
