Our listing of the top lateral moves of 2012 could not be more diverse when it comes to practice area and firm type. And for the first time, we have listed lateral attorneys who left the Pennsylvania market for other locations their departures too significant on the local legal community for their mentions to be barred by our typical in-state focus.
This year’s list includes litigators and corporate partners moving to the world’s largest law firms, a plaintiffs lawyer switching shops, a former law firm head going in-house and a defense lawyer switching to the plaintiffs bar. Practice areas include public housing, products liability, labor, commercial litigation, health care, class actions, government relations and insurance defense, among others.
