In today’s economy, when the usual news for law firms is about downsizing, U.S. Attorney General John Ashcroft eyes market potential.  Ashcroft and several former top Bush U.S. Attorneys are launching a new national law firm.

The new firm will have four offices.  It will be known as Ashcroft Hanaway in St. Louis, Missouri, Ashcroft Sutton Ratcliffe in Texas (Dallas and Austin), and Ashcroft Sullivan in Boston.  The new firm includes four former U.S. attorneys : Catherine Hanaway of Missouri’s Eastern District; John Ratcliffe of the Eastern District of Texas; Michael Sullivan, former U.S attorney for Massachusetts and former acting director of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives; and Johnny Sutton of the Western District of Texas.

He told the Litigation Daily that the firm will mainly represent individuals and organizations facing government investigations and regulatory enforcement actions. Ashcroft said, “We believe there’s an increasing need for firms that specialize in integrity enforcement and that have as their focus the acceleration of matters to their resolution.”
