Eight labor lawyers from Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld are moving to Hunton & Williams to staff offices in California and Texas.

Among those making the move is Laura Franze, a co-chair of Akin Gump’s labor and employment group who will hold the same position at Hunton, the Recorder reports.

Other than Franze, Akin partners making the move include Brett Burns, Fraser McAlpine and Roland Juarez. Four associates are also making the leap.

Burns, McAlpine and an Akin Gump associate will open a new San Francisco office for Hunton, the story says. Other Akin Gump lawyers will work in Los Angeles, Dallas and Houston.
