Alston & Bird trial partner Stephanie Clouston of Dallas, who led that firm's Texas litigation practice, joined Winston & Strawn on Monday as a partner in Dallas and a member of the litigation department, as Big Law moves continue in Texas.

Clouston said she had "12 wonderful years" at Alston & Bird, but could not pass up the chance to move to Winston's Houston office, where she has known a number of its lawyers for years, including Thomas Melsheimer, the office managing partner.
