US: Antitrust pro joins Brown Rudnick

Benjamin Chew has joined New York-headquartered Brown Rudnick as a partner in its Washington, D.C., and Irvine, California, offices.

The litigator arrives from Manatt, Phelps & Phillips (MPP), a firm he had joined in 2014 from Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman, before which he was head of commercial litigation and antitrust at Patton Boggs, where he worked for more than 20 years until that firm merged with Squire Sanders to become Squire Patton Boggs.

“Our strategy is to seek opportunities that lend themselves to innovation and collaboration across our platform, and to add strong people to practice areas where we are a recognized leader,” Mr. Ryan said. “Ben fits the bill. He is a prominent DC litigator with a growing roster of high-profile matters in Southern California, and adds depth and breadth to our litigation team in these key markets. Further, his extensive experience in Latin America and the Middle East maps directly with our multidisciplinary teams focused on those regions. And he is an exceptionally strong fit for us culturally – clever, original, and inventive. We are delighted to welcome him to Brown Rudnick.”
