Hello - I'm a biglaw associate in a transactional practice in NY. I need to move to DC, and I actually want to make a bit of a practice area shift. What firms in DC have big/solid banking regulatory/financial institutions practices. I am thinking Dodd Frank, Basel, OCC, Fed type regulations/regulators. I know a handful (like Skadden) but want to see if I am missing anything.
Thanks!

full disclosure - I am a 2L currently looking to work in DC in the same practice area, so my knowledge is based off on rankings and the advice of others.Anonymous User wrote:Hello - I'm a biglaw associate in a transactional practice in NY.

The firms in DC that I'm looking at are: Hogan and Lovells, Arnold & Porter, Covington, WilmerHale, Skadden, Paul Hastings, Cleary, S&C.
I found this helpful: http://www.chambersandpartners.com/1278 ... torial/5/1 . Just check to see the firms who's key office is Washington, DC.
