Partner Moves
Lateral Partner Moves in London May - June 2020 Welcome to the latest round-up of lateral partner moves in the legal market from Edwards Gibson; where we look back at announced partner-level recruitment activity in London over the past two months and give you a ‘who’s moved where’ update. With law firms having to rapidly adjust to the economic challenges thrown up by COVID-19, their cash- conservation strategies have so far ranged from capital calls, drawing deferrals, rent reductions, pay- cuts and promotion/hire freezes (to name but a few). Although there have so far been mercifully few redundancies, with the UK government already tapering furlough payments, which are due to end completely in October 2020, it is likely many more firms will instigate formal or informal redundancy programmes over the next quarter. Against this backdrop it is unsurprising that at the half-year point, the number of partner moves (195) is down more than a fifth on the statistical average (244) for the same January–June period last year. Nevertheless, a complex picture appears to be developing. On the one hand, despite elevated caution around lateral partner hires, the picture for transactional lawyers is likely still flattered by a lag effect reflecting processes which were in advanced stages, prior to the impact of COVID-19. Against this, expectations of a pending boom in COVID-induced workflow - such as disputes and restructuring - along with potential “bargains” to be had from disruption-induced voluntary and involuntary movement of partners (including perhaps the odd émigré returning from a beleaguered Hong Kong), has boosted lateral numbers which may explain why, in the past two months, the number of laterals (61) is down only 14% on the same period last year (71). -
