When Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., needed someone to serve as chief counsel after he became chairman of the Senate Finance Committee this year, he turned to Capitol Hill veteran Mike Evans to reprise his role as the panel’s top lawyer.
Evans, 59, left his job as a K&L Gates partner in Washington to serve as chief counsel, a position he held from 2000 to 2003 under then-chairman Max Baucus, D-Mont., who was confirmed in February as the U.S. ambassador to China. When Evans left the firm, he traded in his lobbying work for BNSF Railway Co., JPMorgan Chase & Co. and Starbucks Corp. for what he called “the best job in the world.”
