Numbers game – Freshfields awards 15 partner promotions across Europe, Tokyo and New York

In the latest round of partnership promotions, Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer has made up 15 new partners to its ranks. While that figure does not represent a return to 2011 and 2012 levels, when 20 partners were made up, it is a slight increase on last year, when the number fell to 14.

Out of the 15 promotions, 13 have been promoted across Europe with five in London; three in Frankfurt; two each in Hamburg and Amsterdam; and one in Brussels. The remaining two lawyers were promoted to partner in the firm’s Tokyo and New York offices.
