Charles Duross, who left his post as the U.S. Department of Justice’s chief Foreign Corrupt Practices Act enforcer last Friday, is joining Morrison & Foerster to lead the firm’s global anticorruption practice. MoFo broke the news on Monday, announcing that Duross will begin practicing in the firm’s Washington, D.C., office on Feb. 17.
Duross told us Monday morning that he talked to about a half-dozen law firms before choosing Morrison & Foerster, though he declined to name names. He said he was drawn to MoFo by the firm’s reputation, global reach and strong white-collar practice.
