The stakes are high for partners who make a lateral move. Texas Lawyer research editor Jeanne Graham emailed questions to three partners who left their firms to join new firms in 2012. Michael Dinnin joined the litigation section of Andrews Kurth’s The Woodlands office as a partner in March. Jamie McDole joined the Dallas office of Haynes and Boone in June as an intellectual property litigation partner. R. Brent Clifton, a shareholder in Winstead’s taxation, employee benefits and private business practice group in Dallas, joined the firm in November. Prior to making their lateral moves, Dinnin was a partner in Bracewell & Giuliani in Dallas; McDole was a partner in Kirkland & Ellis in Chicago; and Clifton was a partner in Locke Lord in Dallas.
