“We are pleased to have Andrew join our financial services regulatory and litigation practices,” said Matt Gorson, Greenberg Traurig senior chairman. “Andrew is an experienced litigation and regulatory attorney whose background and breadth of experience will be a significant asset to our clients and our firm.”

Wein handles litigation and regulatory issues arising out of federal and state consumer protection statutes.
