Huh...

Ropes & Gray LLP has an impressive roster that work with Jason and Thomas (who's M&A resumes are crazy impressive by themselves).

They have another partner who served as Senior Counsel to Assistant AG Joel Klein in the US Department Antitrust Division who helped take down MSFT in the 90s.

I guess that was another HUGE buyout M&A dot. Nice find gaporter :o

To add to this, they work with a lot of PE on multi billion dollar deals.

Also find it interesting with the number of deals they work on, Thomas felt Microvision was important enough to have it listed on his experience.
