Kellogg, Huber, Hansen, Todd & Evans, P.L.L.C., was formed in the spring of 1993 by law school classmates Michael Kellogg, Peter Huber, and Mark Hansen (Harvard 82). Chris Todd joined the firm in July 1994, and Mark Evans joined in March 1995. Steven Benz, Neil Gorsuch, and Geoffrey Klineberg became members in January 1998. Reid Figel, Henk Brands, and Sean Lev became members in January 1999. Evan Leo became a member in January 2000, and Antonia Apps, Michael Guzman, Aaron Panner, David Ross, and Silvija Strikis became members in January 2001. In addition, the firm formed a separate group called "Telecom Policy and Analysis: a Kellogg, Huber Consulting Group," which is chaired by Peter Huber. The firm now includes 29 partners and associates, 10 staff attorneys, 28 contract attorneys, and 18 researchers/legal assistants.
Our practice is focused on trials and appeals in federal and state courts across the United States and before federal agencies. This litigation builds on the experience of the firms partners as federal prosecutors (Michael Kellogg, Mark Hansen, Chris Todd, and Reid Figel served as Assistant United States Attorneys for the Southern District of New York), as partners in large firms (Mayer, Brown & Platt; Johnson & Wortley; Miller & Chevalier), and in other endeavors (Michael Kellogg and Mark Evans served as Assistants to the Solicitor General; Michael Kellogg and Peter Huber wrote a leading treatise on federal telecommunications law; Peter Huber wrote the landmark Justice Department report on the breakup of AT&T and is a leading author and speaker on telecommunications and tort reform; Chris Todd served as a member of the Iran-Contra prosecution team; and Mark Evans served as Chairman of the Executive Committee of Miller & Chevalier, General Counsel of the Interstate Commerce Commission, and a member of the D.C. Circuits Advisory Committee on Procedures).
Our Lawyers
Our The firms partners have been lead counsel in more than 100 federal and state trials and appeals, and have argued more than a score of cases before the Supreme Court of the United States. The firm was founded with the conviction that able young lawyers can assume at an early point in their careers substantial responsibility for matters at both the trial and the appellate stages. We believe that this benefits both our clients, which receive cost-effective service from highly motivated attorneys, and the attorneys, who experience the satisfaction of practice.
