Lee Stapleton has left K&L Gates to join Carlton Fields Jorden Burt as a shareholder in the firm’s business litigation and white-collar crime practices.

“It’s wonderful to be joining Carlton Fields, a firm that has great lawyers in every practice area — litigation, corporate, real estate, and tax — and a wide variety of subspecialties in those areas,” said Stapleton. “I’m also very happy to be joining a group of friends — people who I’ve known for years and admire for their legal skills, dedication to the community, and graciousness.”
