HARRISON, NJ (June 10, 2014) –
The New York Red Bulls have announced that they have extended their partnership with Morristown-based law firm Riker Danzig Scherer Hyland & Perretti LLP as an Official Marketing Partner. Riker Danzig became a partner of the New York Red Bulls in 2013.
Riker Danzig co-chair Gerald Liloia commented that the continuing partnership is a strategic move on the part of Riker Danzig to take advantage of the exploding appeal of major league soccer while providing a value-added entertainment opportunity to select clients. “Combining the excitement of Red Bulls soccer with their beautiful arena in Harrison has given us a first-rate sports experience to provide to our clients,” Liloia said. “We are thrilled to be working with the fine Red Bulls organization again.”
