Recent lateral hire Brian Wheeler is featured for his arrival to Foley in the IFLR article, “Ex-Softbank in-house counsel motivated by Foley’s ‘rapid’ growth.”
“I think my experience and Foley’s plans are a great match. Foley has targeted northern California as a key growth area and has seen rapid growth in recent years, including through the hiring of my former colleagues,” Wheeler said. “Seeing their success and how much they love working at Foley made the decision to re-join them an easy one.”
On his move from an in-house role to private practice, Wheeler told IFLR, “I focused on what I wanted to get out of my next career move and realized that there are two things that really excite me – having the opportunity to build a business and being able to continue working in all of the areas that interest me: corporate transactions, investment management, and crypto.”
“Going back into private practice at Foley ticks all those boxes for me,” he added.
