Covington & Burling has picked up two top litigators from Heller Ehrman’s insurance recovery practice, writes The Recorder, in the latest in a series of departures from the West Coast giant.
David Goodwin, who joined Heller in 1986 and helped found and later chair two practices, and Lawrence Hobel, who joined in 1989, both begin work at Covington’s San Francisco office this week. They join office managing partner Donald Brown, the only other local partner in the Washington DC-based firm’s insurance recovery group, which now includes 27 partners nationwide.
