Patton Boggs LLP, which operates one of Denver's top 20 law offices, is acquiring the Breaux-Lott Leadership Group, a Washington firm that includes former Senate Majority Leader Trent Lott, R-Miss., as well as former Sen. John Breaux, D-La.

Lott and Breaux will join Patton Boggs' D.C. office as special senior counsel along with their sons, John Breaux Jr. and Chester Trent Lott Jr.; three public policy advisers; and three staff members.

Patton Boggs' core practice areas are public policy and regulatory, litigation, business and intellectual property. It has offices in Denver as well as New York, New Jersey, Dallas, Anchorage, northern Virginia and internationally in Doha, Qatar; and Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates.
