Milbank Tweed Hadley & McCloy may have opened in London more than 30 years ago, but it is only in recent months that its recruitment efforts have really started to gather pace. Last month's hire of Norton Rose financial disputes partner Charles Evans capped a run of high-profile new joiners for the US firm's City arm, with the appointment marking the fifth lateral partner addition in as many months. It followed the recruitment of former Linklaters projects veteran Clive Ransome and Mayer Brown leveraged finance partner Neil Caddy in August, while Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer's Nicholas Spearing, the office's first competition partner, joined in June – a year after Milbank narrowly missed out on hiring SJ Berwin's then EU and competition head Stephen Kon, who opted to remain at the City firm where he is now senior partner.
