Lawyer Peter Isakoff bought a four-bedroom, four-bath rambler on Ardnave Place in Potomac for $1.6 million. On two acres, the house has a bar and exercise area. Isakoff is a partner at Weil, Gotshal & Manges, where he specializes in white-collar criminal defense and commercial and bankruptcy litigation.
Isakoff is the third member of the Elect to appear in this installment of Lawyerly Lairs. After graduating first in his class from Columbia Law School, where he served on the law review, Isakoff clerked for Judge Wilfred Feinberg (2d Cir.) and Justice John Paul Stevens.
