TERESA HUGGINS
Partner
Waymaker LLP
Teresa Huggins handles complex commercial litigation at the trial and appellate level, with an emphasis on intellectual property, fintech and First Amendment matters. A partner at Waymaker LLP, she represents plaintiffs and defendants, and has argued in state and federal court, achieving decisive victories. A Harvard Law graduate and a member of New York’s and California’s bars, Huggins handles cases on both coasts.
Among her recent matters, Huggins argued successfully before the Ninth Circuit that her client’s case should be stayed pending appeal of the underlying foreign judgment in the Cayman Islands. She also successfully defended against a motion to dismiss the complaint of her client, a cryptocurrency investor pursuing claims against a former partner in the Southern District of New York. Huggins handles numerous fintech matters. She recently got another complaint against a cryptocurrency exchange and its founder dismissed with prejudice based on the statute of limitations.
