After spending nearly three decades at Morrison & Foerster, technology transactions partner John Delaney has decided to leave the Silicon Valley-based firm to join Perkins Coie’s New York office.

Delaney, who started his legal career as an associate at Morrison & Foerster’s San Francisco office in 1989, moved to New York in 1994. On his decision to join Perkins Coie, Delaney said he “wanted to be at a firm that is 100 percent committed to becoming the leading technology, blockchain and digital media firm in New York City.”
