    Mocek and Mansfield will join A&O’s US investigations and litigation practice, and will continue to focus their practice on the energy sector. They join from Cadwalader’s closing Houston office.

    Mocek was at Cadwalader for six years, having joined from McDermott Will & Emery, where he worked for two years. Prior to that, Mocek was a director of enforcement at the US Commodities Future Trading Commission.

    Mansfield was at Cadwalader for seven years, having also joined from McDermott where he worked for a year. Before that, he was chief trial attorney and counsel to the director of enforcement to the US Commodities Future Trading Commission.
