Ex-Sen. Scott Brown Joins Law Firm

What an unsurprising development

Former senator Scott Brown (R-Mass.) is joining the law firm Nixon Peabody LLC as counsel in the firm's Boston office, Nixon Peabody announced Monday.

Brown's practice will focus on business and government affairs, particularly in the finance and real estate industries.

"During my time in politics, I never hesitated to reach across the aisle to work with members of any political party to secure a preferable outcome," Brown said in a statement released by the firm. "My approach is consistent with the way Nixon Peabody does business and I believe we can be successful together."
