As a member of Mayer Brown's Supreme Court & Appellate practice, Andy focuses on federal preemption, product liability, and First Amendment cases, but has successfully briefed and argued a wide variety of other issues, including attorney-client privilege and antitrust liability for pre-bankruptcy conduct. A co-author of the recently published treatise Federal Appellate Practice, he regularly represents clients in the US Supreme Court, the various US Courts of Appeals, and state appellate courts. In addition to his purely appellate work, Andy also works closely with trial lawyers to craft and preserve legal arguments for later appellate review.

After receiving his J.D. from the Yale Law School, where he was an editor of the Yale Law Journal, Andrew clerked for Judge John G. Koeltl of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. Before joining Mayer, Brown, Rowe & Maw LLP in 2005, Andrew practiced for five years at Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison LLP. Andrew has a Ph.D. in Political Science from M.I.T., and a B.A. in Economics from Wesleyan University.
