The New England Patriots took nine players in the 2016 National Football League Draft this past weekend, and while the team was without its first-round pick because of the ongoing Deflategate saga, the NFL franchise’s outside counsel made a pick of its own by recruiting an in-house lawyer who once worked for its star quarterback’s father.
Amiel Weinstock quietly joined Morgan, Lewis & Bockius’ Boston office as of counsel in late March after nearly three years as general counsel of Thomas Brady & Associates, a high-end life insurance brokerage firm with offices in four cities chaired by Thomas Brady Sr., father of the Patriots quarterback of the same name.
