Brown Rudnick Adds Aaron Lang as Partner, Strengthening Crisis Management Litigation & Government Response Team
NEW YORK, May 4, 2022 – Brown Rudnick announced today that Aaron Lang has joined its New York office as a partner in the Litigation & Arbitration practice and as a member of the Crisis Management Litigation & Government Response team.
Lang’s practice focuses on high-stakes litigation and investigations for banks, investment firms, and corporate clients. He has handled multibillion-dollar and high-profile securities, M&A, and corporate governance litigation, as well as a variety of other complex commercial cases. Lang also has extensive experience conducting regulatory and internal investigations, including anti-money laundering, tax, benchmark-setting, and compliance investigations.
“We are very excited to integrate Aaron into the elite crisis management litigation team,” said Stephen Best, chair of the White Collar Defense, Investigations & Compliance practice. “Aaron’s talent and experience will make him a key player.”
Lang previously served as a special counsel at Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft Lang, where he practiced with Mark Grider, a former White House senior adviser and deputy assistant attorney general at the U.S. Department of Justice. Grider recently joined Brown Rudnick’s Washington, D.C., office as a partner in the White Collar Defense practice and as head of the Crisis Management Litigation & Government Response team.
“This is a time of growth and opportunity for our Firm and practice groups,” said Sunni Beville, managing director of Brown Rudnick’s Dispute Resolution & Restructuring Department. “Aaron exemplifies the type of lawyer we are seeking as we strengthen and diversify our practice offerings.”
As a member of the Crisis Management Litigation & Government Response team, Lang will partner with Grider to navigate clients through bet-the-company litigation and regulatory crises. “I am delighted that Aaron will be joining the team,” Grider said. “We had a strong working relationship at our prior firm, and I believe our collaboration at Brown Rudnick will be very beneficial to our clients. Aaron is a true strategist and a skilled advocate; he is an important addition to the Crisis Management Litigation team.”
Lang received his B.A., cum laude, from Harvard University and his law degree from Duke University.
“I am grateful for the opportunity to join the top talent at Brown Rudnick and reunite with Mark,” Lang said. “I look forward to contributing to the Firm’s outstanding reputation for litigation and investigations.”
