The new partners are joined by 7 new special counsel, 13 senior associates, 18 associates and 6 services.

“Our promotions demonstrate the firm’s ongoing transformation, both internally and across the legal sector, backed up by our dedication to making a difference to our clients”, CEO David Newman added.
