The largest U.S. law firms in London added some 500 lawyers to their U.K. ranks last year, making more than 100 lateral partner hires as the weaker pound and the King & Wood Mallesons (KWM) collapse helped the group ramp up their presence there.
Between them, the 50 largest U.S. firms with U.K. law practices added 109 new partners in London during 2017, up marginally over the previous year.
