NEW YORK -- Former U.S. Attorney Mary Jo White is rejoining her old law firm, Debevoise & Plimpton, as it expands its white-collar crime practice amid growing financial scandals.
Ms. White, 54 years old, will be chairman of the firm's litigation group and oversee 150 lawyers in addition to defending companies and conducting internal investigations for those accused of securities-law violations and corporate crimes. She was a partner at the firm from 1983 to 1990, focusing on white-collar work.
"Obviously, in the current business climate, that's what I expect to see a lot of: white collar criminal defense, internal investigations, Securities and Exchange Commission matters," Ms. White said.
As U.S. attorney in Manhattan from 1993 until January, Ms. White was best known for her prosecution of terrorism cases, winning convictions in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing and the 1998 bombings of two U.S. embassies in Africa. Her office also prosecuted many securities-fraud and other corporate cases
