Two months after Sheila Birnbaum and Mark Cheffo, former co-chairs of the products liability practice at Quinn Emanuel Urquhart & Sullivan, left to join Dechert in New York with one other partner, the other shoe has dropped.

Dechert announced Friday that it had added an 18-attorney products liability team from Quinn Emanuel, composed of three partners, nine counsel and six associates. Dechert is also picking up three project attorneys and five paralegals.
