The article included:

Following the official appointment of new chief managing partner Joshua Christie, Ice Miller LLP announced that it has named two attorneys as deputy managing partners and has elevated six attorneys to partner.

Columbus, Ohio-based Edward Braum and Chicago-based Laurie Miller were named deputy managing partners of the firm following Christie's promotion to the chief position at the start of January, Ice Miller said last week. The firm added that Braum's focus will be on growth, expansion, innovation, lateral recruiting and market opportunities, while Miller will primarily handle operations and business efficiency.

"I can't say enough good things about Ed and Laurie," Christie told Law360 Pulse on Thursday. "I've worked closely with both of them on both client matters and firm management issues, and as a team, I am certain we will fire on all cylinders and capitalize on the momentum we have. Each of their skill sets bring to the table exactly what we need to work with all of our partners to take our firm to the next level."
