Taylor Wessing has bolstered its Paris arm after recent losses in the French capital with the hire of two new partners and a senior associate.

The firm has moved to shore up the office with the hire of Simon Christiaen and Evelyne Friedel as partners. Christiaen joins from Landwell, where he was a partner, while Friedel arrives from Jones Day, where she was a counsel. Senior associate Valerie Aumage has joined from Field Fisher Waterhouse in Paris.
