As the year’s end nears, Big Law lateral hiring continues at a rapid pace in Texas, with Norton Rose Fulbright corporate partner Trevor Pinkerton joining King & Spalding as a partner in Houston, and former U.S. Department of the Interior lawyer Jason Hill moving to Hunton Andrews Kurth in Houston and Washington, D.C.

The moves are just part of the early November wave, which includes Lowenstein Sandler emerging companies and venture capital partner Valeska Pederson Hintz, who joined Perkins Coie as a partner in Austin; and Dallas mergers and acquisitions lawyers Brian Lidji and Kyle Hooper, who moved to Jackson Walker as partners in Dallas.
