Nixon Peabody partner Kelly Kramer was also picked up on the wiretap targeting then-Rep. Rick Renzi, a House Republican who raised suspicion among investigators for a series of land deals. Laura Miller, who chairs Nixon’s government investigations and white-collar defense practice, was on the wire.

Renzi is charged with crimes that include wire fraud, money laundering and extortion.
