After a 13-strong partner promotions round last year, Simmons & Simmons has made up just seven lawyers in its latest promotions round.
The firm, which is experiencing slower financial growth after a record-breaking 2014/15, has made up just three lawyers in the City this year. This is just a third of the number made up 12 months ago, when nine lawyers across seven practices got the nod in the City. Elsewhere Paris, Düsseldorf, Hong Kong and Milan received one promotion apiece.
