Morrison Foerster—Jenny Galloway & Luke Rowland

Firm grows London practice with two partner promotions

Morrison Foerster has promoted two lawyers in its London office as part of a wider round of 17 partner appointments effective from 1 January 2026. The London promotions span litigation and transactional work, strengthening the firm’s disputes and corporate capabilities in the City.

Jenny Galloway (pictured) has been promoted to partner in the investigations and white collar defense group in the litigation department. Based in London, she advises corporate clients and senior executives on complex, often overlapping government investigations, civil litigation and criminal exposure, including UK public inquiries and parliamentary select committee matters.

Also promoted in London is Luke Rowland, a partner in the mergers + acquisitions group in the transactions department. His practice focuses on significant cross-border public and private M&A, investments and joint ventures, advising clients on complex international deals.

Firm chair Eric McCrath said it was his ‘privilege to welcome the talented members of our 2026 class of attorneys to the partnership’, adding that they ‘personify the firm’s commitment to client service’ and its ‘collaborative professional environment’.
