As it continues its push for US expansion, Allen & Overy (A&O) has appointed two partners to its investigations and litigation practice in Washington DC. Meanwhile, a former A&O partner who had retired has resurfaced at Simmons & Simmons, while a team of four moved to Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher in Paris this week.
Gregory Mocek and Anthony Mansfield join A&O’s Washington DC office from Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft. The pair previously served in the Division of Enforcement of the US Commodity Futures Trading Commission as the leader of its domestic and international investigations and litigation and its chief trial attorney respectively.
