Katten Muchin Rosenman has added five lawyers to its recently launched Dallas office, including a white-collar defense team and a former federal judge.

Jorge Solis, former U.S. District chief judge for the Northern District of Texas, joined the firm as special counsel on Wednesday, two years after he retired from the bench. Litigation partners Barrett Howell and Brandon McCarthy, who do white-collar crime and fraud defense work, came from Bracewell.
