Nixon Peabody Loses Its Private Equity Deal Team
Dominick DeChiara is leaving Nixon Peabody, where he has served as chair of private equity, in order to join fellow law firm Winston & Strawn. Also leaving will be partner Brad Vaiana, and Nixon Peabody's "core deal team." The moves are effective at the close of business today. DeChiara says that the Winston platform is better in that it offers his team a "deeper bench." Indeed, Winston's private equity deal team in Chicago may actually be a bit larger than what DeChiara has been leading in New York. He declined to comment on what his team's departure means for Nixon Peabody, which already has removed DeChiara and company from some -- but not all -- parts of its website (get his cached bio here).
