Robinson Bradshaw Hires Second Former Supreme Court Law Clerk

Robinson Bradshaw has hired attorney Mark Hiller, who clerked for both Justice Sonia Sotomayor of the U.S. Supreme Court and Judge Robert D. Sack of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. Hiller will practice commercial litigation out of the firm’s Charlotte office.

Hiller has represented companies and individuals in a wide variety of matters, including securities class action litigation, False Claims Act lawsuits, bankruptcy litigation and government investigations. In addition to his trial work, he also has authored briefs in the U.S. Supreme Court and in federal appellate courts on a diverse array of issues.

“Mark is a great addition to our firm,” said Managing Partner Allen Robertson. “His high caliber qualifications and experience will enhance our litigation and appellate practice, and we are glad to welcome him to Robinson Bradshaw.”

Prior to joining Robinson Bradshaw, Hiller was an associate at the litigation boutique Robbins, Russell, Englert, Orseck, Untereiner & Sauber LLP. He graduated magna cum laude from Harvard College and earned his law degree from the University of Virginia, where he served as an editor of the Virginia Law Review and was a member of Order of the Coif.

Hiller is the second former Supreme Court clerk hired by Robinson Bradshaw this year. Litigation attorney Erik Zimmerman, who previously clerked for Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. of the U.S. Supreme Court, joined Robinson Bradshaw’s Research Triangle office earlier this spring.
