Summary: Former Federal Trade Commission (FTC) Senior Litigation Counsel Thomas Lang has joined Haynes and Boone, LLP as a partner in the firm’s Antitrust and Competition Practice Group. He joins the Washington D.C. office of the firm.
Haynes and Boone announced on Wednesday that former FTC attorney Thomas Lang has joined the firm’s Antitrust and Competition Practice Group as a partner. Prior to joining the firm he was an antitrust partner at Morgan Lewis & Bockius, LLP.
Lang has served in the leadership of the Antitrust Law Section of the American Bar Association continuously since 2003, and is currently vice chair of the Trial Practice Committee. He was previously vice chair and chair of the Business Torts & Civil RICO Committee and is a former vice chair of the Books & Treatises Committee.
From 2006 to 2008, Lang served as senior litigation counsel in the FTC’s Bureau of Competition.

Kathy Beasley, co-chair of the firm’s White Collar / Antitrust Practice Group said: “Tom arrives at our firm as government is accelerating antitrust enforcement in mergers and acquisitions. Increasingly we are seeing clients in need of sophisticated counseling to navigate through crucial laws and rules in play. The timing of Tom’s addition to Haynes and Boone couldn’t be better.”
