Linklaters has hired a senior M&A partner from Dutch leader Nauta Dutilh to bolster its growing national practice, with Peter Goes becoming the fourth senior addition to the City giant’s Amsterdam arm in the last 18 months.

Goes became an equity partner in the corporate practice at Nauta in January 1995, before moving to PwC Legal Services in Rotterdam in 1998. He returned to Nauta again in May 2000.
