Dorsey partner jumps to Cozen O’Connor

Christopher Bellini, the former chair of Dorsey & Whitney’s Private Equity group, has joined the Minneapolis office of Cozen O’Connor.

Cozen opened its Minneapolis office in June 2013 by hiring eight attorneys from the Minneapolis office of Hinshaw & Culbertson. The firm’s office is in the 33 South 6th Street building in downtown Minneapolis.

Bellini was a partner in Dorsey’s Corporate Group, and a member of the Capital Markets, Mergers and Acquisitions and Venture Capital and Emerging Companies practice groups.

Bellini focuses his practice on mergers and acquisitions of publicly and privately held companies and private equity acquisitions and divestitures.

He also assists clients with transactions involving SEC-registered public offerings and private placements, and he works closely with private equity funds and start-up companies with transactions of private equity and venture capital.

He earned an LL.M. from New York University School of Law, where he was graduate editor of the NYU Journal of International Law and Politics, and his J.D. from the University of Minnesota Law School. He also received his B.A. cum laude in economics from the University of Minnesota.

“In just a few short months, Cozen O’Connor has made its mark in Minneapolis, and we are excited that Chris will be part of our team, as we continue to deepen our bench,” said the office managing partner Thomas G. Wallrich in a press release announcing the hire. “Minneapolis is a strong business hub, and our continued growth will allow us to better serve clients in the Midwest and across the country.”
