Morgan Lewis has appointed Charles Lubar as head of its London office, replacing Bob Goldspink, who is set to retire at the end of this month.

Lubar, who was part of the team that founded the firm’s London office and managed it until the mid-1990s, will take up the role on 1 October. He has been a partner at Morgan Lewis for almost 30 years and also heads up the firm’s London tax practice.
