Washington, D.C., 27 October, 2014 – Hogan Lovells announced today that Aaron Cutler, formerly the Senior Advisor for Policy and Outreach for the Office of the Majority Leader Eric Cantor, will join the firm’s Legislative group as a partner.

Cutler’s practice will focus on traditional advocacy and political intelligence. He has diverse experience having worked directly with several industry sectors including banking, real estate, financial services, energy and environment, telecommunications, technology, and tobacco.

“Aaron brings a wealth of experience and a unique perspective as a former Wall Street transactional lawyer with both Committee and Leadership senior staff Capitol Hill experience,” said Mike House, Director of Hogan Lovells’ Legislative group. “His policy experience on Capitol Hill combined with his relationships on Wall Street will bring a unique set of attributes to Hogan Lovell’s legislative and corporate practices.”

Cutler served as the Leader’s liaison to the House Committees on Financial Services, Natural Resources, and Energy & Commerce. Prior to serving as the Senior Advisor for Policy and Outreach, Cutler acted as the Deputy Policy Director and Counsel for the Energy and Commerce Committee.
