Mr Daschle is himself leaving DLA Piper to set up the venture. It is being formed as a ‘policy affiliate’ of the 650-lawyer US practice Baker Donelson. The Daschle Group will operate both independently of Baker Donelson’s government relations and public policy group and in connection with it. The Group will give advice to clients on political, policy and economic issues. Source: ABA
