Five of the seven partner promotions were in Camerons’ commercial, regulatory and disputes practices.
Four of the firm’s partners have been promoted from the firm’s three-year salaried gateway to full equity status, including London partners Ben Holland (energy) and Yuban Moodley (commercial, regulatory and disputes).
