Joe D. Whitley has left Alston & Bird for Greenberg Traurig, where he is a shareholder. Whitley, a former U.S. Attorney for both the Northern and Middle Districts of Georgia, is a white-collar criminal defense attorney who broadened his practice into national security matters after serving as the first general counsel for the Department of Homeland Security.
