Seven Kirkland & Ellis lawyers have quit the firm's Los Angeles office to join Jones Day, reports The Am Law Daily. Kirkland's West Coast restructuring group head Richard Wynne, partner Bennett Spiegel, of counsel Erin Brady and Lori Sinanyan, and associates Christopher Healey, Stacie Torres, and Lance Miller will all join Jones Day's Los Angeles office, with the exception of Miller, who is based in New York. The lateral hires leave Kirkland with only three restructuring lawyers in Los Angeles. Wynne said the idea of leaving Kirkland had been "percolating" in his head for six months, but that he and the other lawyers were only interested in moving as a group.
