Nelson Mullins Riley & Scarborough has added 11 partners in a raid on Baltimore-based Miles & Stockbridge and is opening an office in the Maryland city.

The group includes a nine-partner litigation team led by veteran trial lawyer Michael Brown. Two corporate partners, Timothy Hodge Jr. and Colleen Kline, who co-chaired Miles & Stockbridge’s corporate and securities practice, are also making the move. Hodge will be managing partner for Nelson Mullins’ new Baltimore location.
