Paul Hastings has high ambitions for the four-partner finance team the firm lured from Latham & Watkins in London this month, noting on Monday that the group “brings key lending relationships with virtually every major investment bank and private credit institution.”

The firm has named Mo Nurmohamed, who was co-chair of Latham’s London finance department, a co-chair of Paul Hastings’ global finance practice, along with existing co-chairs Jennifer Yount,  John Cobb and Luke McDougall. He arrives alongside partners Ross Anderson, Karan Chopra and Rob Davidson from Latham.
