With an international bent, a sole location in Washington, D.C., and a government-focused revenue generation strategy, midsize powerhouse Miller & Chevalier knows how its bread is buttered. This week the firm is leaning further into that mandate with the addition of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s former international affairs chief, Paul Leder, as of counsel in its litigation practice.

“Obviously I’m looking forward,” Leder said about the move. Citing the firm’s deep bench and expertise, he said Miller & Chevalier “has proven itself exceptional in working with clients” on both domestic and international issues.
