Washington, D.C. Associates Named to 2008 30 Under 30 List

WASHINGTON, D.C. (July 22, 2008) — McDermott Will & Emery is pleased to announce that two of its Washington, D.C. associates, Jeffrey Mikoni and Timothy Shuman, have been named to Legal Bisnow's 30 Under 30 list.  Legal Bisnow selected attorneys for the list based on significant work or accomplishments they achieved that made them stand out among their colleagues. 

"This honor reflects the exceptional work and service that our younger talent provides to our clients," commented Jeffrey Stone, head of the Firm's Trial Department.

As a member of the Firm's Trial Department, Mr. Mikoni concentrates his practice on complex trial and appellate litigation, with an emphasis on federal jurisdictional and constitutional issues.  He supports McDermott trial teams by developing appellate strategies, drafting petitions for writ of certiorari and merit briefs, and assisting with oral argument preparations. 

Mr. Shuman is a member of the Firm's Tax Department.  He focuses his practice on corporate and international tax matters for U.S. and foreign multinationals, with particular emphasis on acquisitions, dispositions, and restructurings, including reorganizations and spin-offs.  He also has experience with transactions involving corporations with special tax status, such as regulated investment companies and insurance companies.

Since its opening in 1978 with two lawyers, our Washington, D.C. office has become a full-service location with more than 240 lawyers practicing in a host of practice areas.  Expanding on our initial representation of clients before government agencies, congressional committees, the executive branch, the legislative branch, and federal and state courts, our Washington, D.C. lawyers now advise clients on the full range of corporate business law, including antitrust, general corporate, employee benefits, energy and derivatives markets, global trade, government regulation, government strategies, health care, intellectual property, tax and trial matters.
