Two lawyers who shared leadership of UnitedHealth Group Incorporated’s legal department are returning to law firm life at Hogan Lovells. Christopher Walsh and Mitchell Zamoff will apply their collective legal and business know-how to establishing a new location for the firm in Minneapolis.

Walsh will serve as a member of the corporate practice group, and Zamoff joins the litigation, arbitration, and employment practice. Until office space can be secured in the Twin Cities, Walsh will be splitting his time between the firm’s Washington, D.C., and Denver locations, and Zamoff will work solely in Washington.
