Donald Trump may have had a hard time soliciting lawyer contributions on the campaign trail, but as president-elect he is having far more success bringing them into the fold.
Longtime Republican supporter and Barnes & Thornburg managing partner Robert Grand has been named to Trump’s inaugural committee. Grand joins a team led by private equity billionaire Thomas Barrack Jr., a fellow lawyer, vocal Trump supporter and candidate to head the U.S. Department of the Treasury. Grand’s group will help coordinate all official events surrounding the presidential inauguration on Jan. 20, 2017.
