Just a month after Reed Smith combined with Sachnoff & Weaver and opened its doors in Chicago, the new office welcomes its first lateral recruits. The three-lawyer team from DLA Piper includes Alexander Terras and Jason Kaplan, who will join as partners, and Timothy Harris, who will join as counsel. Terras and Harris will join the Commercial Restructuring and Bankruptcy Group, while Kaplan will work in the Financial Services Group. The lateral hires will be beneficial to the firm in handling the region’s rise in bankruptcy filings. Reed Smith’s Restructuring & Bankruptcy Group has more than 50 professionals in 17 offices in the U.S. and Europe.
