Riley Safer Holmes & Cancila, a firm formed last year by a breakaway group of former Schiff Hardin partners, has hired nearly a dozen lawyers led by Bryan Cave’s Chicago managing partner Joseph McCoy.
Of the 11 new recruits announced Thursday by Riley Safer, all but two are African American. One of them is Gregory Curtner, the former head of the antitrust, trade regulations and sports practice at Schiff Hardin, and a go-to outside lawyer for the National Collegiate Athletic Association, which has turned to Curtner to handle litigation with former college athletes.
