Jeff Mokotoff has rejoined Ford & Harrison as a partner after leaving four years ago for a unique opportunity as chief administrative officer for a longtime client, Turner Enterprises, which is Ted Turner’s private company.

In addition to serving as employment counsel for Turner’s 46-restaurant chain, Ted’s Montana Grill, Mokotoff helped start an ecotourism business, Ted Turner Expeditions, for the media mogul and philanthropist’s vast landholdings in the West. Turner, the second-largest landowner in the nation, owns more than two million acres, including 15 bison ranches, in Montana, New Mexico and South Dakota.
