Jeffrey Trinklein—Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher LLP

 New co-partner in charge for London office

Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher LLP has named Jeffrey Trinklein as co-partner in charge of the London office.  
 
Jeffrey succeeds Thomas Budd, who has served in this role since 2008 and will continue his corporate practice as the co-chair of the firm’s global finance group. Labour and employment partner James Cox will continue to serve as co-partner in charge of the London office alongside Jeffery.

Jeffrey serves as co-chair of Gibson Dunn’s global tax practice group and has extensive experience in US and international taxation, with special emphasis on advice to foreign clients with investments in the US and advice to US clients with foreign operations.   
 
He joined Gibson Dunn in 1985 and has previously worked in the firm’s New York, London, Munich, Dallas and Orange County offices.  He received his law degree with honours from the University of Virginia in 1985.
 
“We thank Tom for his strong leadership,” says Ken Doran, chairman and managing partner of Gibson Dunn. “The office has grown exponentially, and we plan to continue with that momentum. Over his career, Jeff has worked in several Gibson Dunn offices—both within and outside the US. His deep institutional knowledge and strong leadership will be an asset to the office and the firm.”
 
“The firm has significantly expanded the London office,” says Jeffrey.  “It’s an exciting time to be here, and James and I look forward to seeing this office continue to grow and thrive.”
