Bingham McCutchen has added three new partners to its antitrust and trade regulation practice from the Washington DC office of Clifford Chance (CC), including office managing partner Leiv Blad.

Joining Blad at Bingham will be partner Jon Roellke and of counsel Boyd Cloern. Blad, who has served as the office’s managing partner since 2004, says he will be taking a “number of matters” to Bingham and will be working with the same clients “that I have developed and built relationships with” at CC.
