Baker & Hostetler, which planted a flag in Texas in 1990 in Houston, has expanded to Dallas by hiring white-collar litigator Shawn Cleveland as a partner, though the firm has not opened a brick-and-mortar office in the city.

Cleveland, who joined Baker & Hostetler on Sept. 5, comes from Winston & Strawn‘s Dallas office. He is one of 21 lateral partners who launched that office in February 2017.
