International law firm Withers has recently welcomed partners Philip Watkins and Victoria Rodley in London. Philip and Victoria both join the firm from Brown Rudnick.
Philip and Victoria work closely as a team, having previously also practised together at Katten Muchin Rosenman and Hogan Lovells. They represent clients globally across a wide range of sectors, including retail, hospitality and leisure, brands and fashion, education and charity/not-for-profit. They cover cross-border M&A, private equity, takeovers, strategic investments, JVs, restructurings, re-financings, corporate governance, buyouts and exit strategies.
Both will join Withers' corporate team which specialises in the international representation of closely held businesses, founders and entrepreneurs.
Speaking on behalf of Victoria and himself, Philip said: 'We are hugely looking forward to joining the team. We have always sought to create strong and long-term relationships with our clients, which is also the Withers way, and an ethos we very much share.'
Jeremy Wakeham, CEO of Withers' Business division, commented: 'Victoria and Philip are fantastically experienced corporate lawyers and trusted advisers to their business and private capital clients.'
