Sedgwick set to launch DC office after raiding local firm for legal talent

Sedgwick, Detert, Moran & Arnold is set to open an office in Washington DC after the hire of 14 lawyers from local firm Wallace Partners. The incoming group includes managing partner Richard Wallace, five other partners, one counsel, and seven associates – it is the entire legal team from Wallace, though Sedgwick chair Michael Tanenbaum says that the new hires and office constitute neither a merger with, nor an acquisition of, Wallace Partners.
