The move is the latest in a list of departures from Squire Patton Boggs after the 2014 merger that created it between Squire Sanders and Washington DC-based Patton Boggs. Squire Patton Boggs has 44 offices in 21 countries. 

Compliance

The move is described by Steptoe & Johnson as 'a major expansion of its financial services practice'. In an announcement, the firm says: 'Together, the newly expanded financial services practice will bring together professionals in the legislative, regulatory, compliance, enforcement and financial litigation practices.'

Full range

Micah Green said: 'As clients’ needs expand beyond legislative and regulatory policy advocacy and move to compliance and enforcement, Steptoe’s strong government enforcement and investigations and white-collar practices will not only enhance the talent of my team, but, more importantly, ensure that we have a full range of coordinated services to offer clients.'
