Three Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman partners are leaving to join Jones Day’s Irvine, California office. Former co-leader of the litigation practice, Richard Ruben, along with office-managing partner, Darren Cottriel, and Ralph Blakeney will be making the move. Offers have also been made to at least five associates. Ruben said that his decision to leave primarily had to do with Jones Day’s reputation in litigation and committment to growth in California.
