Ninety-attorney Morrison Cohen has brought aboard a Willkie Farr & Gallagher attorney to its litigation department. Terence McLaughlin, 42, joined Morrison Cohen as a partner on Nov. 1. He had worked at Willkie Farr for 17 years, first as a summer associate and, starting in 2005, as a partner.

McLaughlin, who represents financial institutions, hedge funds, corporations and business executives in litigation, said he liked that Morrison Cohen focuses on middle-market clients, a concentration better aligned with his practice. “As a relatively young person, I was looking at how to go about building a business at a $900-plus billable rate,” he said. “I felt that [Morrison Cohen] was a more interesting platform.” A spokesman for Willkie Farr did not respond to a request for comment.
