(Feb. 10) – Carrington, Coleman, Sloman & Blumenthal announced yesterday that former Fortune 500 general counsel David Black has joined the firm as a partner.
Black, who led the corporate legal departments of BearingPoint (formerly KPMG Consulting) and Affiliated Computer Services, most recently served as counsel for private equity firm Bella Luna Investments.
“Of the roughly 1 million attorneys in the United States today, there are only a handful in private practice after serving as GC at two Fortune 500 companies,” Carrington Coleman Managing Partner Bruce Collins said in a statement. “David possesses a profound and virtually unmatched understanding of the challenges facing corporate leaders of emerging, middle market and global companies.”
Black has led more than 150 acquisitions and directed KPMG’s $2.3 billion initial public offering in 2001, the second-largest in NASDAQ history at the time.
