Sidley Austin made waves in London this week with another senior partner hire from Latham & Watkins, bringing over Latham’s London corporate co-chair David Stewart (pictured).
Stewart is the ninth Latham partner to join Sidley in the last eight months, following the August move of a five-partner leveraged finance team led by Legal 500 acquisition finance Hall of Famer Sam Hamilton and leading individual Jayanthi Sadanandan, the October hire of capital markets partners Scot Colwell and Patrick Kwak, and the December hire of Latham London finance co-chair Tania Bedi.
