Former New York State Insurance Superintendent Eric R. Dinallo, fresh from a run for New York attorney general, has joined Debevoise & Plimpton as a partner, the firm announced today. Mr. Dinallo, 47, will practice in the financial institutions group and represent clients in matters ranging from litigation to investigations to mergers and acquisitions. Mr. Dinallo, who in September’s Democratic primary came in fifth of five candidates, said he planned to remain at Debevoise for the long-term and ruled out future runs for government office. “I think we cured that bug,” he said.
Mr. Dinallo was superintendent from 2007 to 2009. He worked with the U.S. Treasury Department, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and others in restructuring American International Group Inc., a major client of Debevoise. Mr. Dinallo said state ethics rules bar him from appearing before the insurance department for about six more months and he may on a case-by-case basis recuse himself from matters he worked on as superintendent.
