Four partner promotions at London office

Jean-Francois Le Gal, Roger Kennell and Christian Toms all practice in the firm’s international disputes team. Their practice focuses on international arbitration, as well as multi-jurisdictional and offshore proceedings—frequently with a link to the Middle East and North Africa region. Their appointments bring the total number of partners in this practice area to 11. 

Henry Kikoyo works in debt restructuring and corporate refinancing, acting for lenders, bondholders and distressed investors.
