    JOINT STATEMENT Unique Pro Bono Collaboration Tackling Refugee Crisis

    JOINT STATEMENT 2 October 2020 Unique pro bono collaboration tackling refugee crisis wins two awards for legal innovation LONDON: An ambitious pro bono project, the Greece Pro Bono Collaborative (GPBC), which provides crucial assistance to asylum seekers in refugee camps in the Greek Islands has been announced as the winner of the Innovation in Social Responsibility award in the Financial Times Innovative Lawyers Awards Europe. The project was also awarded the CSR Innovation (Multi-Firm) award in Legal Week’s Legal Innovation Awards. The project is a joint effort between six firms – Allen & Overy; Ashurst; Charles Russell Speechlys; Dentons; Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe and White & Case – and the NGO European Lawyers in Lesvos (ELIL). Refugee Legal Support (RLS) was also an NGO partner in the project’s first year. At its core, the GPBC aims to provide urgent legal support and advice to vulnerable individuals, with volunteers focusing on preparations for first instance asylum interviews and working on family reunification applications. It helps individuals of all ages, genders and nationalities. “The incredible need in Greece had been clear to us for some time, but developing a project that could really meaningfully utilise the capacity of international law firm lawyers, and scaling impact through collaboration within the sector, took careful planning” said Amy Grunske, Head of International Pro Bono at Orrick. A comprehensive project infrastructure was developed, with necessary training, supervision and support provided to the firm volunteers by the expert lawyers at ELIL. Implemented in a truly collaborative way, each firm provided volunteer lawyers for two-week placements in Greece in person, before switching to remote secondments in light of Covid-19.

    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.

Ashurst partner Geoffrey Green, talking to Legal Business last year. And 2005/06 was the year when Ashurst finally came of age as a confidently branded, progressive law firm in its own right – as opposed to being a perennial US merger target. A focus on improving its profitability has paid huge dividends, with Ashurst making up ground on the Magic Circle and establishing clear blue water between itself and rivals in its immediate peer group. Average profits now stand at £701,000, up 24% from last year. Encouragingly, the firm has seen revenues rise by 28% at the half-year mark of the current financial year, which is expected to translate into another significant profits increase for 2006/07. Ashurst has been extremely active in the laterals market, taking 15 partners internationally. In December, the firm announced that it was set to launch in Stockholm with (L-R) James Baxter and Vanessa Pawsey of Legal Business, Simon Bromwich and the takeover of three-partner AJB Bergh, a move driven by the Geoffrey Green of Ashurst, with Richard Meddelton of The Royal Bank of Scotland HIGHLY COMMENDED has quietly re-established its position as a leading BURGES SALMON UK law firm with a reinvigorated City office.
