National publications covered the recent arrival of McGuireWoods New York and Charlotte partner Jason Cowley, who joined the firm’s Government Investigations & White Collar Litigation Department.
The American Lawyer, Law360, Global Investigations Review, Reuters and The Wall Street Journal were among the media outlets that noted the Aug. 3, 2020, addition of the former federal prosecutor. Cowley is a former co-chief of the Securities and Commodities Fraud Task Force and former chief of the Money Laundering and Asset Forfeiture Unit of the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York.
Of his move to private practice after years as a prosecutor, Cowley told Law360 that McGuireWoods is a “uniquely good fit” because its substantial presence “in the Carolinas and in my hometown was just a perfect combination of being able to get re-established here in North Carolina while at the same time having an awesome national and international platform to continue the type of work that I really enjoyed doing at SDNY.”
