Moscow is known as a city that can be tough to recruit in, but even so, Dechert‘s attempt to open in the Russian capital with a five-partner team from Chadbourne & Parke has unraveled spectacularly quickly. On Monday Konstantin Konstantinov, a corporate and finance specialist who was part of the group that joined Dechert in May, rejoined Chadbourne.
Dechert originally announced on May 8 that five partners would be joining from its U.S. rival, only to see two of them — finance partner Jennifer Handz and Russian litigator Mikhail Rozenberg — decide to remain at Chadbourne.
