"Jim brings significant capabilities to a group that has rapidly emerged as a full service, cost-effective alternative for clients needing representation on complex government contracts matters." "Our firm has a simple formula for our clients' success: we provide hands-on, practical advice based on deep real-world experience; we operate with a reasonable cost structure that allows us to charge reasonable rates (or adopt alternate fee arrangements); and we have a thoughtful approach to avoiding client conflicts," said David Panzer, Chair of the firm's Government Contracts Group. "Jim reflects our shared values - he is team-oriented, business-focused and intellectually curious, but not an academic. His expertise is a welcome addition to our growing International, Investigations and Compliance capabilities."
