Vogel Group Hires Brian Nieves to Handle Oversight Inquiries as Democrats Eye House Retake in November
1 articles · Updated · POLITICO · Jun 15
Summary
Brian Nieves, former chief of staff to acting Attorney General Todd Blanche, has joined Vogel Group to advise clients on congressional oversight inquiries, ethics issues and investigations.
Vogel is betting on Nieves’ mix of DOJ and Capitol Hill experience — including time as House Judiciary deputy chief counsel and in Trump’s first White House — to help clients navigate rising scrutiny.
That demand is growing as companies prepare for Democrats to potentially retake the House in November, increasing the value of former Oversight and Judiciary staffers on K Street.
The hire also deepens Vogel’s Trump-era bench after Blanche’s formal nomination for attorney general and follows the firm’s recent expansion into Tennessee and Arizona.
