Orrick Expands Fintech Practice with Addition of Regulatory Expert Ignacio Sandoval

Global law firm Orrick welcomes Ignacio Sandoval to the Financial and Fintech Advisory Practice. Sandoval, formerly of Morgan Lewis, has joined the Washington, D.C. branch as a partner.

Drawing upon his extensive experience advising broker-dealers and securities-related service providers, Sandoval navigates the complex landscape of regulatory challenges emerging in the securities market. He brings to Orrick a unique expertise in addressing matters before notable organizations such as the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), and other self-regulatory organizations.

More details about Mr. Sandoval’s appointment were given in a public announcement by Orrick on
Monday.

The recent move aligns with global trends in the legal industry, where major firms increasingly explore financial technology or “fintech” as a domain of specialized legal practice.
