As private equity lawyers continue to make moves in Houston, Orrick Herrington & Sutcliffe and Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher each added a Willkie Farr & Gallagher private equity partner, while Willkie picked up a new Houston partner who comes with more than a decade of experience as a general counsel of private equity firms.

Willkie has lost a number of other transactional partners in Houston to Big Law competitors over the last several weeks. The firm opened in Houston in 2014.
