Looking to work with more lawyers who focus on his niche ERISA class action defense litigation practice area, Brian T. Ortelere has moved from Pepper Hamilton to Morgan Lewis & Bockius. Yesterday was his first day at Morgan Lewis.
Ortelere said he first became involved in ERISA litigation as a specialty practice about 10 years ago, defending clients such as Unisys and Conrail. Because the practice is not one that is common to many firms, Ortelere said he found himself becoming an expert of sorts in the field.
