“My ears are in listening mode right now,” Nolan Kurtz said. “The best thing is to come in and actively listen to the partners, our lawyers, our consultants, our operations professionals and really learn from them.”
After 17 years at Buchanan Ingersoll & Rooney, Chief Operating Officer Nolan Kurtz has jumped to Faegre Drinker Biddle & Reath.
Kurtz is taking over from Jane Koehl, formerly the COO for Drinker Biddle & Reath before the 2020 merger with Faegre Baker Daniels, who moved to Venable in February. Kurtz’s move, which went into effect Aug. 26, comes at a time where Faegre Drinker is looking to enhance its performance and growth, as well as more effectively leverage its internal data and generative artificial intelligence, according to firm chair Gina Kastel.
