Partner promotion for dispute resolution lawyer

Rosenblatt has announced the promotion of Elizabeth Weeks to partner.

Elizabeth joined Rosenblatt in 2017. Prior to this, she spent the majority of her career at West End private client firm Boodle Hatfield. She acts for clients on a wide range of complex and high value contentious commercial issues, and has extensive experience in multi-jurisdictional dispute resolution, including in litigation, arbitration (under a number of different institutional rules) and adjudication.

She has acted on a wide variety of disputes, encompassing contractual disputes, commercial fraud, breach of duty, jurisdictional challenges, company, shareholder, partnership and family business disputes, and professional negligence claims. Her work often involves urgent court applications and application of foreign law. Her private wealth experience has also seen her acting for clients in the arts and luxury assets sector.

Elizabeth also advises clients on a range of construction matters comprising the full project lifecycle. This includes advice on procurement methods and the negotiation and implementation of construction contracts, through to dispute avoidance and resolution.

Elizabeth said: ‘At Rosenblatt I work alongside exceptional colleagues who are committed to delivering legal services of the highest quality to clients. I look forward to continuing to develop my career and building my practice here, contributing to the firm’s already stellar reputation in the disputes arena.’

Tania MacLeod, senior partner at Rosenblatt, added: ‘Elizabeth’s extensive expertise and knowledge make her an incredible asset to both our firm and valued clients. We are delighted to welcome such a dedicated lawyer to our partnership.’
