Freshfields has added four new partners to its private equity and M&A partnership in Germany and Austria as the firm looks to rebuild after the departure of four prominent partners in December, including the firm’s global co-head of M&A.
The additions come in the form of one lateral hire and three partner promotions. Freshfields has also announced that a further two partners already resident in the firm’s other German offices will now split their time to bolster the Munich office.
