Orrick Herrington & Sutcliffe has added an M&A and private equity partner in Paris, reinforcing the firm’s team and anticipating renewed demand in France once the new coronavirus crisis is past, the firm said.

Olivier Jouffroy joined Orrick earlier this month from Clifford Chance, where he was a counsel for five years. Prior to joining Clifford Chance, he practiced as an M&A senior associate at Herbert Smith Freehills and an M&A associate at Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer.
