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.
