Murphy & McGonigle said it added securities lawyer Thomas Ferrigno as a shareholder, after a relatively quick stint at Nelson Mullins Riley & Scarborough.

Ferrigno, based in Washington, D.C., is a former chief counsel of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s division of enforcement who left the government for Nelson Mullins in October 2017. Nelson Mullins continued to trumpet his arrival earlier this year as part of the “significant growth” in the firm’s white-collar defense and government investigations team.
