Joseph Kanefield is leaving his post as General Counsel to Arizona Governor Jan Brewer to join Ballard Spahr as a partner in its Phoenix office. He said he chose Ballard Spahr because of its national scope and reputation.
“Ballard is a national law firm that is building its practice here in Arizona,” Mr. Kanefield said. He will start at the firm on May 16 and focus on government relations, appellate work, and election law.
