Ropes & Gray recently announced the arrival of Jeremiah Williams as counsel in the firm’s Washington, D.C., securities and futures enforcement practice. Williams joins Ropes & Gray from the SEC, where he served as Senior Counsel in the Asset Management Unit. See “Conflicts Remain an Overarching Concern for the SEC’s Asset Management Unit” (Mar. 12, 2015).
