In an interview with The Texas Lawbook, Alamdar Hamdani said he chose Bracewell in part because of its deep roots in his “adopted hometown” of Houston, its international platform and its “growing and burgeoning enforcement practice.”
“It made a lot of sense, and I knew a lot of people at Bracewell as well,” Hamdani explained. “Probably the most important thing anywhere is just good people, and the people I’ve met here are good lawyers who do good work and make the right call, and I think that’s incredibly important.”
“I’m excited about all of it,” he added on the transition back to private practice. “I’ll tell you this, it’s exciting to take my 17 years of Department of Justice experience — chasing terrorists, chasing spies and corrupt organizations and cartels — and leveraging that for an organization like Bracewell.”
