Lateral Partner Moves in London September- October 2018 REPRESENTATION – SEARCH – TEAM MOVES www.edwardsgibson.com 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. After a relatively subdued start to 2018, where at the half year point partner hires were down by nearly a quarter on 2017, there were 90 partner hires in this edition – 17% up on the same period last year and 18% up on the statistical average over the preceding 5 year period. The overall number of lateral hires was particularly high considering there were no large team moves consisting of three or more partners. A recurring theme of the past two years has been the sheer volume of partner hires in Corporate Crime/ Investigations and this round-up is no exception. Five firms, Addleshaw Goddard, BLM, DWF Kingsley Napley and RPC, have all announced lateral hires in this space, in two instances at the expense of the SFO. Also of note is the disproportionately high number of corporate tax moves – fully 7% of all hires recorded in this edition were in tax with partners joining DLA Piper, Greenberg Traurig, Katten Muchin Rosenman, Mayer Brown, Osborne Clarke and Wiggin. By far the most acquisitive firm over the past two months was White & Case which snapped up a half dozen new partners across a diverse range of practice areas from disputes to structured products. -

The Architecture of Joseph Michael Gandy (1771-1843) and Sir John Soane (1753-1837): An Exploration Into the Masonic and Occult Imagination of the Late Enlightenment Abstract In examining select works of English architects Joseph Michael Gandy and Sir John Soane, this dissertation is intended to bring to light several important parallels between architectural theory and freemasonry during the late Enlightenment. Both architects developed architectural theories regarding the universal origins of architecture in an attempt to establish order as well as transcend the emerging historicism of the early nineteenth century. There are strong parallels between Soane's use of architectural narrative and his discussion of architectural 'model' in relation to Gandy's understanding of 'trans-historical' architecture. The primary textual sources discussed in this thesis include Soane's Lectures on Architecture, delivered at the Royal Academy from 1809 to 1836, and Gandy's unpublished treatise entitled the Art, Philosophy, and Science of Architecture, circa 1826. -
