Financial Institutions Lawyer Arthur Long Joins Gibson Dunn in New York

Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher LLP is pleased to announce that Arthur Long has joined the firm’s New York office as a partner. Previously a partner with Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, Long will continue his law practice focusing on the regulation of banks and other financial institutions.

“We are delighted to welcome Arthur to the firm,” said Ken Doran, Chairman and Managing Partner of Gibson Dunn. “The Dodd-Frank Act and its implementing regulations, such as the Volcker Rule, go well beyond the traditional boundaries of banking regulation and affect a broad segment of our clients. His addition will enhance our ability to advise our clients in these important and evolving areas.”

“Arthur is a terrific addition to the firm,” said Steven Shoemate, Co-Partner in Charge of the firm’s New York office. “He is one of the leading bank regulatory lawyers in the country, and his practice will complement our existing strengths in M&A, capital markets, enforcement and compliance. Arthur is highly regarded by the financial institutions community and has advised a large number of leading U.S. and foreign banks. He will be an exceptional resource for our clients.”
