In a continuing stream of Big Law lateral moves in Texas, Greenberg Traurig hired Morgan, Lewis & Bockius litigator Ethel Johnson as a shareholder in Houston, while Baker McKenzie added Baker Botts cybersecurity special counsel Rachel Ehlers as a partner in Houston.

Johnson joined Greenberg Traurig on Monday as a shareholder in the litigation practice, the  pharmaceutical/medical device and health care litigation practice, as the firm focuses on expanding several practices, including litigation, in its three Texas offices. In September, the firm picked up three Dorsey & Whitney litigators in Dallas, led by shareholder Michael Gruber.
