NEW YORK CITY—In a major bid to expand its real estate practice, Hunton & Williams has added two lawyers to its industry bench, GlobeSt.com has learned EXCLUSIVELY.
Attorneys Jerome Dano and Valerie Kitay have been brought on as counsel from Thacher Profitt & Wood and Goodwin Procter, respectively. The former has experience in the CMBS market while the latter brings fund formation expertise to the table.
“We have a rapidly growing real estate practice that's gone from zero at the beginning of April 2012 to 27 in New York and it's even bigger nationwide,” says Carl Schwartz, co-head of the global real estate practice. “The more types of experience you can bring to a client, the better.”
