It was a busy day on the hiring front for Arnold & Porter Kaye Scholer, which said Tuesday that it had added Christopher Dodd, the former U.S. senator from Connecticut, and Steve Benz, who was head of litigation for pharmaceutical company Eli Lilly.
Both will practice out of the firm's Washington, D.C., office.
Dodd, whose tenure on Capitol Hill lives on in the shorthand for the post-financial crisis reforms known as Dodd-Frank, served five consecutive terms in the U.S. Senate before deciding not to run for re-election in 2010. His title at Arnold & Porter Kaye Scholer will be senior counsel.
