Ross Forbes, Jr., Chair of the Firm’s Trial & Appellate Litigation practice group, said, “Arthur’s addition marks a significant win for our IP litigation practice as well as our internal investigations and white collar group. He has a history of winning cases as an Assistant United States Attorney in the Southern District of New York and as an attorney at a national law firm. His experience will complement and support the team’s abilities involving intellectual property litigation as well as counseling clients in government investigations.”

“Arthur’s addition marks a significant win for our IP litigation practice as well as our internal investigations and white collar group.”

“Arthur will be a valuable addition to our team,” said Raman N. Dewan, Chair of the Intellectual Property practice group. “His history as a lead prosecutor, including in federal intellectual property crimes, and as outside counsel to a broad range of clients will pair well with the great work our IP litigation team has been doing, winning jury trials and—when possible—resolving disputes before heading to trial.”

Virginia Alverson Mimmack, Chair of the Firm’s Healthcare practice group, said, “We are happy to welcome Arthur to Jackson Walker and we look forward to working with him. His experience advising clients on internal investigations and government investigations, including False Claims Act suits will be a great addition to our healthcare team.”
