Bracewell has expanded its government enforcement and investigations practice with the addition of former Southern District of New York prosecutor Dina McLeod, who most recently led the office’s Complex Frauds and Cybercrime Unit. McLeod brings more than a decade of experience handling high-profile fraud, cybercrime and AI-related matters, further strengthening the firm’s white-collar and investigations capabilities.
“When I started to explore opportunities to return to private practice, Bracewell was consistently recommended as the place to be by both colleagues at DOJ and in private practice,” McLeod told Law360. “I know the team and have a great deal of respect for them.”
“Dina has spent over a decade at the center of federal white-collar enforcement, prosecuting complex financial fraud, sophisticated cybercrimes and AI-enabled offenses,” Bracewell’s Seth DuCharme told Law360. “Corporations and individuals facing government scrutiny need a lawyer who has led these types of investigations from the front and has experience making critical decisions under pressure. Dina has proven that she can take responsibility and deliver extraordinary results.”
