Mishcon de Reya is going international. The New York office opened its doors on 19 January 2010.

A team of 15 will staff the new office under managing partner James J. McGuire. The office will focus on maintaining and enhancing its many other longstanding commercial arrangements with US law firms.

Jim McGuire is a recognised expert in both civil and white collar criminal litigation, he will be joined by a further two litigation partners—Mark Berube and Tim McCarthy from Sheppard Mullin—together with a number of associates and support staff.

McGuire says of the move:
“Mishcon de Reya’s reputation precedes it, as a results driven litigation—led firm with high profile corporate and high net worth individual clients.”

Mishcon de Reya’s managing partner Kevin Gold says: “Opening our first international office in one of the major financial centres of the world, is an exciting opportunity for both our business and for our clients.”
