Regarded by peers as one of the top lawyers in the corporate arena, Robert Denham is the legal adviser of choice for Berkshire Hathaway and its legendary CEO, Warren Buffet. Denham returned to his transactional practice at Munger Tolles in 1998, following a six-year stint as chairman and CEO of financial services firm Salomon. He is widely credited with helping that company emerge from a highly publicized scandal in the early 1990s involving allegations that subsidiary Salomon Brothers rigged certain U.S. Treasury markets. Denham also later negotiated Salomon's $9.6 billion purchase by Travelers Inc., an agreement reached in 1997. He has worked on numerous major transactions since returning to private practice, including the $8 billion sale of the Times Mirror Co. to the Tribune Co. Denham also serves as a director for companies such as Chevron Corp. and Lucent Technologies.
