McDermott Will & Emery, having just sorted through a list of candidates in order to finalize its new leadership, has continued a hiring spree it embarked on a few weeks ago, one that recently saw the firm bring back its former Boston office leader.

The Chicago-based firm hired Schulte Roth & Zabel partner ROBERT GOLDSTEIN in New York to head its private equity group, as noted earlier this month by sibling publication the New York Law Journal. Goldstein has brought with him from Schulte Roth special counsel FRANK STEINHERR, who joined McDermott has a partner in its private equity group, and real estate investment and finance partner DANIEL MARTIN.
