McGuireWoods makes first London partner promotion
William Boddy has become the first lawyer to be promoted to partner in the London office of McGuireWoods LLP. He focuses his practice principally on cross-border commercial litigation, and also handles shareholder and insolvency disputes.
Managing partner of the London office, Dan Peyton, commented: ‘William’s promotion is evidence of the quality of work flowing through the litigation practice as well as the hard work he has put in on behalf of clients and I congratulate him on his achievement. The promotion strikes a great note for the firm to ring-in the new year and symbolizes the progress the London office has made to be in a position to promote internally.’
Though William’s appointment signals the first internal promotion for the firm, his move bring the total number of partners in the London office to 17. A number of partners were hired laterally throughout the last 12 months, most recently leveraged finance expert Lorraine Vaz in July 2017.
