Former Indiana Gov. and U.S. Sen. Evan Bayh has left McGuireWoods for Cozen O’Connor’s Washington, D.C., office, bolstering the lobbying wing of the Philadelphia-based firm.

Bayh had been a partner in McGuireWoods’ D.C. office since retiring from the Senate in 2011 after serving two terms. He will now serve as a senior adviser to Cozen O’Connor Public Strategies and will be of counsel to the law firm.
