Roslynn Mauskopf, the previous director of the US judiciary’s administrative office and former federal judge, has joined Bracewell’s New York office, reports Bloomberg Law. Mauskopf has an impressive track record, having served on the US District Court for the Eastern District of New York for 14 years after her appointment by then-President George W. Bush in 2007, including a year as chief judge. Furthermore, she held important positions such as the US attorney for the Eastern District and New York’s state inspector general.
Her role at Bracewell will be as a partner, focusing on the firm’s government enforcement and investigations practice. The move comes after Mauskopf recently retired from her role as the judiciary’s top official, where she led the Administrative Office of the US Courts for three years.
The addition of Mauskopf to Bracewell’s team is undoubtedly a strategic move for the firm, signaling its commitment to strengthen its government enforcement and investigations practice and its intention to tap into Mauskopf’s exceptional expertise and experience.
