Just over a month after welcoming international arbitration partner J.P. Duffy to the firm, Reed Smith has added former Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer lawyer Ben Love to its roster as counsel in New York.

The firm’s international arbitration practice leader, José Astigarraga, told The American Lawyer in May that he wanted to continue to expand the practice, and he appears to be sticking to that strategy. At Freshfields, Love was an associate in Paris and later New York.
