Two Am Law 100 firms are getting new leaders, with labor and employment firm Jackson Lewis naming litigation head Vincent Cino to succeed Patrick Vaccaro as chairman, and Minneapolis-based Dorsey & Whitney choosing corporate and transactions group head Kenneth Cutler to follow Marianne Short as the firm’s managing partner.
For Jackson Lewis, the planning to find a successor to Vaccaro began in the spring when he announced his intention to return to practicing labor law after a six-year run as chairman that saw the White Plains, New York–based firm double in size, Jackson Lewis now has 735 lawyers—more than half of them partners—spread across 49 offices around the country.
