Hatch has no problem with donning new hat

Former Attorney General Mike Hatch, speaking with Minnesota Lawyer earlier today, expressed no discomfort at leaving his role as consumer crusader to don the mantle of corporate champion.

In his new job as special counsel to Blackwell Burke in Minneapolis, Hatch will be practicing corporate law "with a tilt" toward health care, insurance and banking, he said. But, he also said, "my practice is what my clients tell me."

As for potential clients, Hatch has several irons in the fire. However, unlike when he was attorney general, now his clients want him to keep them out of the press.
