One of Florida’s most prominent law firms is adding to its stable of legal eagles by hiring a former Assistant U.S. Attorney.
GrayRobinson, which has about a dozen offices in Florida and one in Washington, D.C., announced the addition of Julie Posteraro as a litigator in its Orlando office. Posteraro was added to the firm as a shareholder in the litigation section.
Posteraro spent more than a decade as an Assistant U.S. Attorney in the Middle District of Florida. A GrayRobinson news release said she also has private practice experience, including representing major corporate clients in cases arising from large-scale disasters and catastrophic events. She’s been involved in government investigations and the defense of clients in white-collar cases and regulatory challenges.
“We are thrilled Julie Posteraro has joined our team of litigators at GrayRobinson,” said GrayRobinson Litigation Section Chair Jay Brennan. “Julie’s perspective as a former federal prosecutor in one of the nation’s largest federal jurisdictions, combined with her approach to sophisticated disputes, strengthens our litigation practice and the counsel we provide to clients.”
In her time with the federal prosecutor’s office, Posteraro supervised more than 120 lawyers in a leadership role with the district. And before that, in private practice, she handled multiple cases involving national and international disputes.
Posteraro said she’s enthused to join GrayRobinson.
“I’m excited to join GrayRobinson as a shareholder and continue representing clients in complex high-stakes litigation and regulatory matters,” said Posteraro. “GrayRobinson’s collaborative approach and depth of experience across legal, regulatory, and business sectors are the ideal platform for clients facing sophisticated, bet-the-company matters.”
Posteraro earned her law degree from Boston University School of Law and her bachelor’s degree in foreign service from Georgetown University.
GrayRobinson has more than 300 employees, and its lawyers provide lobbying and litigation services.
