Paul Hastings LLP has welcomed commercial litigator Alex Leitch to its London office as a partner.
Formerly a partner at Covington & Burling, Alex focuses on disputes arising from all significant commercial relationships, and has particular expertise in the financial services, technology, and life sciences sectors. A qualified solicitor-advocate, he regularly undertakes advocacy before the English High Court and other tribunals.
Seth Zachary, chairman of Paul Hastings, said: ‘Our clients face a range of complex litigation risks in today’s global business landscape—from commercial and industry-specific litigation to disputes driven by regulatory issues—and they require seasoned litigators to help protect their value. With his depth of experience and expertise across all of those areas, Alex is a strong addition to our UK and global Litigation practices.’
Alex added: ‘Paul Hastings’ strong growth in London, across Europe and around the world continues to be remarkable, and I am very excited to be a part of it. I look forward to partnering with my new colleagues to further expand and enhance our global Litigation practice.’
