Half of Dewey & LeBoeuf’s leadership announced yesterday they are leaving. Richard Shutran and Jeffrey Kessler, two partners in Dewey’s office of the chairman, found positions at other firms. O’Melveny & Myers announced that it hired Shutran as well as Dewey partners Junaid Chida, Arthur Hazlitt, Mark Caterini and Dev Sen. All five will be partners at O’Melveny in New York. Meanwhile, Kessler, Dewey’s global litigation chair, is headed to Winston & Strawn. Kessler is among 22 litigation partners, including 17 in New York, to move to Winston. A number of Dewey counsel and associates are going with them, about 60 lawyers in all, according to The Am Law Daily, an affiliate.
The two remaining members of Dewey’s office of the chairman are L. Charles Landgraf, the managing partner of the firm’s office in Washington, D.C., and business solutions and governance department chair Martin Bienenstock.
