Sonnenschein Nath & Rosenthal has added John L. Harrington as a partner in its taxation practice at its Washington D.C. office. Harrington had previously been with the Treasury Department since 2001 and most recently served as international tax counsel from 2007-2009.

Sonnenschein’s taxation practice national chair, Marc D. Teitelbaum, called the addition of Harrington “a coup for our clients.”

“Understanding tax policy on the domestic and international level, as well as its direction, is the key driver for business planning.  The level of sophistication and expertise that John brings in this regard is a coup for our clients,” Teitelbaum said.
