Worldwide partner promotions total 22 over 11 offices at Eversheds
 
 


International law firm Eversheds has announced 22 promotions to the firm’s partnership across its offices worldwide for their promotions round for 2010-2011.


Countries that have seen partner promotions include China, Poland, South Africa, Switzerland, Germany and the United Kingdom.

The firm’s Company Commercial practice group promoted 10 new partners, while the Litigation and Dispute Management team gained eight. The Real Estate and Human Resources groups both welcomed two new partners. Just over 30% of the promotions were female.

Bryan Hughes, Eversheds’ Chief Executive, said:

“The strength of our business reflects the strength of our people and we have some exceptional talent across Eversheds. To make partner, we ask our lawyers to demonstrate leadership, business acumen and excellence in client service alongside high quality legal expertise. We welcome all of these lawyers to our partnership because they possess all of these qualities and more. In one way or another they have all demonstrated a commitment to the firms strategy and will play a pivotal role as we continue to develop our practice in cities around the world.”
