In recent developments, David N. Kelley has departed from Dechert LLP and joined O’Melveny & Myers, behemoth of the legal industry. Listed as a partner in the firm’s white collar defense and corporate investigations practice group in New York, his addition to the O’Melveny & Myers team was announced earlier this week.
Kelley’s strong background in the legal sector adds an abundance of experience to the firm. He previously held the role of a US attorney for the Southern District of New York. His professional focus for O’Melveny & Myers spans a multi-faceted approach. He will serve in an advisory and representative capacity for multinational and domestic public companies, offering his experienced insights to boards of directors, audit committees, officers, and directors.
His role at O’Melveny & Myers incorporates a variety of areas including enforcement matters, internal and regulatory investigations, governance and compliance issues, and criminal investigations. His prior role at Dechert LLP, serving as the co-leader of the white collar and securities litigation practice, adds to his credibility and mettle in this vertical.
