Blank Rome is on a transactional practice hiring spree this year, most recently tacking on three energy and natural resource partners from Reed Smith, including the firm’s former energy and natural resources practice co-chair Ryan Purpura.
Purpura, who will be operating in both Pennsylvania and Texas, is joined in the move by Houston-based finance, restructuring, and bankruptcy attorney Matthew Lea and Pittsburgh corporate, M&A and securities attorney Ryan Haddad.
