New heads at home & abroad
International firm King & Spalding has announced new managing partners to head up three of its offices, including in its London base.
Thomas Sprange QC has taken over the role from Garry Pegg, London’s managing partner for the last seven years. Since 2011, Thomas has been a partner in the firm’s international arbitration and litigation department, and is highly experienced in handling an array of complex commercial disputes. He was appointed QC in 2015, and regularly represents clients in the Chancery and Queen’s Bench divisions of the High Court. With this new move, Thomas takes on the role of heading up King & Spalding's first international office, which opened in the City of London in 2003.
Elsewhere, the firm has also appointed two further managing partners: Mark Jensen, who will take over leadership of the Washington, D.C. office; and Mark Thigpen, who was announced as the new managing partner in Charlotte.
