CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Seyfarth Shaw LLP announced today the arrival of partner Angela Hsu to its Real Estate department in Atlanta. Hsu was most recently a partner in the Real Estate practice group of Bryan Cave Leighton Paisner (BCLP).

She will work closely with Richard (“Rick”) White and Jason DeJonker, who joined Seyfarth last month from BCLP.
