Former United States Attorney Craig Carpenito Joins King & Spalding
Craig Carpenito, who served as the United States
Attorney for the District of New Jersey until earlier this month, has joined
King & Spalding, an Am Law 100 international corporate law firm. He will
join the firm’s New York office as a partner in the firm’s Special Matters and
Government Investigations practice group.
Craig served as the United States Attorney for the
District of New Jersey for three years from 2018-2021. Prior to that, he served
at Alston & Bird as a partner in the firm’s Litigation and Trial Practice
Group and White Collar Group. He has also served as a Senior Counsel in the
United States Securities and Exchange Commission’s Division of Enforcement and
as an Assistant U.S Attorney in the Securities and Health Care Fraud Unit.
Craig’s practice focuses on financial services,
regulatory enforcement matters, healthcare, government and internal
investigations, and complex civil and securities litigation. During his tenure
at the U.S. Attorney’s office, he led some of the significant healthcare and
life sciences prosecutions, commodities and financial fraud actions, and other
investigations under key federal statutes, including the Foreign Corrupt
Practices Act, False Claims Act, and Food, Drug and Cosmetics Act. He also
chaired the Department of Justice’s national Covid-19 Hoarding and Price
Gouging Task Force.
Zach Fardon, Chair of King’s Government Matters
practice group said, “Craig’s work spearheading trials and investigations
in the healthcare and financial services industries will make him an invaluable
asset to companies in those sectors facing government scrutiny.” Edward
Kehoe, managing partner at King’s New York Office added, “Craig’s arrival
supports our strategy in New York to continue to provide our clients with
unparalleled expertise in these industries.”
Earlier this month, former Deputy Attorney General Rod
Rosenstein joined King’s Washington D.C. office as a partner in its Special
Matters and Government Investigations team.
Former Providence Mayor Angel Taveras Joins Womble’s Boston Office
Former Providence Mayor, Angel Taveras has joined Womble Bond Dickinson, one of the largest law firms in the southeastern United States. Taveras will join the firm’s Boston office. Taveras is a known New England litigator and he served as the mayor of Providence, Rhode Island from 2011-2015. During his tenure as the mayor, he was credited with saving the city from almost certain bankruptcy and dealing with a $110 million structural deficit.
Taveras joins Womble from Greenberg Traurig, where he
was a shareholder in the firm’s Boston office and was a part of the firm for
nearly six years. His practice focuses on municipal restructuring, public
infrastructure, public finance, and complex litigation matters. He has rich
experience in public-private matters, including advising corporate houses on
matters related to government relations.
Womble opened its Boston office in 2017 and in a short
time span, it has gained prominence as a leading intellectual property law firm
in the market. It serves the region’s technology and biotech industries.
Commenting on his recent move, Taveras said, “I’ve joined Womble because
it is an outstanding firm with a 150-year history and commitment to innovation
and results. In just a few short years in Boston, Womble has established itself
with a prominent intellectual property practice group. I look forward to
helping to grow Womble’s litigation and government relations practice
group.”
In 2013, Taveras received Bloomberg Philanthropies’ $5
Million Grand Prize for winning the Mayor’s Challenge. He was also recognized
as “One of the 5 Innovative Mayors in the Country” in 2013 by
Metropolis Magazine. Womble’s Office Managing Partner, Sara Keefe said,
“With Taveras’ arrival the firm will now launch the next phase of an aggressive
growth strategy across a range of practice areas.”
