Asset management consultancy strengthens its legal team

The legal arm of asset management consultancy MJ Hudson has promoted two of its lawyers to partner.

The first appointment, Edyta Brozyniak (pictured), moved to MJ Hudson Law from Macfarlanes in April of last year. She specialises in the formation of infrastructure, private equity and venture capital funds, and advises government bodies and sovereign wealth funds.

The second new partner Emmanuel Amos joined the firm in 2016 after almost two years as an associate in the Singapore office of Jones Day. He advises on a range of corporate transactions, including cross-border M&A deals, joint ventures and private equity-backed deals.

Managing partner of MJ Hudson Law, Eamon Devlin, said: ‘Both Edyta and Emmanuel are first-rate lawyers, with a blue-chip pedigree and strong technical acumen. Emmanuel adds to our fast-growing M&A team and Edyta to our funds team. We believe in accelerating the progress of talented individuals within the firm. The average age of our legal team is 31—which is there by design. We are pleased to welcome them both to our young, ambitious partnership.’
