International firm Winston & Strawn LLP has welcomed Ed Denny to its London office as a partner.

Ed comes on board from his former position of head of the tax department at Orrick. He focuses on the tax aspects of corporate finance transactions, including M&A deals involving public and private companies. His additional areas of expertise include international tax issues and the technology sector.

The firm’s chairman Tom Fitzgerald said: ‘Ed’s practice dovetails with our existing transactions offerings and will help our clients navigate tax implications on a wide range of issues. His global and cross-border experience will increase our ability to support M&A and private equity transactions, among others.’

I look forward to collaborating with the firm’s corporate department partners to support cross-border transactions in the US, Europe, and the Middle East.’
