Steve Korotash, a partner at Morgan Lewis and former assistant director of enforcement at the SEC, says that the position has always been viewed as one of the premier legal jobs in the country, but he says experienced attorneys who would normally seek the post are not because this is “a difficult time for the Fort Worth office.”
“The enforcement staff is operating at half of its normal staffing level,” Korotash says. “All the political pressures are still there, but the resources to do the job are not.”
