Houston Business Journal quoted Haynes and Boone, LLP Partner Ricardo Garcia-Moreno in an article about his recent promotion to administrative partner of the firm’s Houston office.
Here is an excerpt:
"My goal is to continue to grow the firm in the Houston area — continue to increase the reputation and help hire and attract great talent," Garcia-Moreno said.
Garcia-Moreno replaces Mark Trachtenberg — who is still a partner at the firm — for the role.
Garcia-Moreno has a background in energy law, along with cross-border mergers and acquisitions, securities law compliance and corporate governance, according to a Jan. 14 statement. That emphasis on cross-boarder deal-making is particularly relevant in an international city like Houston, Garcia-Moreno said.
"Almost every transaction we work on these days has an international flair," he said.
That could mean deals between entities based in other countries, but it could also mean those that involve international ownership or assets, Garcia-Moreno said.
Garcia-Moreno has been a Haynes and Boone partner for nearly 11 years, prior to which he spent 11 years as an attorney with Winstead PC.
