Addleshaw Goddard has announced the promotion of 13 new Partners, 60% of whom are female, underscoring the firm's growing commitment to nurturing a culture centred on equality and inclusion.
The 13 new partners span seven of its international offices in the UK, Asia and the GCC, demonstrating the increasingly global nature of the firm. They also include its first partner promotions in Asia, keeping it well on track to hit its growth plans of being a double digit partner firm in the region in the near future. This has been further supported by a spate of lateral hires into its Hong Kong and Singapore offices over the past year.
The growing nature of the business is also reflected in the number of partner promotions, which are an increase on last year. They cover all four of the firm's Divisions, with two in its Finance and Projects, five in its Corporate and Commercial, one in its Real Estate and five in its Litigation Divisions.
