Paul Bagon joins as a senior insolvency and restructuring associate from Weil, Gotshal & Manges LLP. Prior to this, Paul worked at Ashurst for over five years.

In addition, John Aynsley has been promoted to head of real estate, as part of the company’s planned growth strategy. John joined the firm in January 2014, having previously worked at Allen & Overy LLP and Speechly Bircham LLP.
