In a recent development, Nicholas Simon has been inducted as a partner in the business practice group at BakerHostetler. He will also serve as a member of the mergers and acquisitions team as well as the sports industry team, based in their Cincinnati, Ohio office. The news was announced by the firm earlier this week, as indicated in their press release.
With an established professional background advising clients on complex mergers and acquisitions and commercial transactions in the middle market, Simon is expected to bring valuable expertise to his new roles at BakerHostetler. Details of his client portfolio and key transactions from his previous tenure have not been released.
Prior to this appointment, Simon had held the position as chair of the sports and entertainment industry group at his previous firm. The name of the previous firm has not been disclosed yet.
