London family team appoints new leader
Withers partner Suzanne Todd has taken up the leadership of the firm's top-ranked London family law team. Suzanne trained at Withers and became a partner in 2007. She takes over the team leader baton from Julian Lipson, who has served in the role since 2008.
Julian comments: "Suzanne is a hugely-respected and pivotal member of the team, and will do a great job of leading us forwards and to further successes. She has a terrific knowledge of the law and the market and, more importantly, of what clients look for in a family lawyer. I am delighted to be entrusting the practice leader job to her."
Suzanne adds: "I am very excited to be taking on the head of team role from Julian. He has very successfully maintained the team's position of pre-eminence and I thank him for his efforts on behalf of all of the firm. I know that after nine years, he'll be glad to get back to focusing his energies on his practice full-time! I look forward to continuing to explore new ways in which we can serve our clients, and working closely with our family law colleagues in Hong Kong and Singapore on offering a joined up international service."
