Clifford Chance (CC) has boosted its Paris office with the hire of a trio of former Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer corporate lawyers led by partner Fabrice Cohen.

Cohen joins CC from Willkie Farr & Gallagher, which he joined just two years ago from Freshfields alongside of counsel Gabriel Flandin and senior associate Basma Paradin. The same team will move with him to CC. Cohen also served as a member of Willkie Farr’s European management committee.
