A little more than a month after opening its second office in California, Barnes & Thornburg has recruited three restructuring lawyers from Cooley in San Diego.

The hires come a few weeks after Barnes & Thornburg nabbed former Cooley partner Troy Zander to set up shop in the city. Zander, now partner-in-charge of the Indianapolis-based Am Law 100 firm’s San Diego office, will reunite with former Cooley colleagues Ali Mojdehi, Janet Gertz and Allison Rego. Mojdehi and Gertz join Cooley as partners, while Rego comes aboard as an associate. Gertz was previously an associate at Cooley.
