Hewitsons’ renewed focus on private client and particularly commercial property is reflected in its partnership statistics. The public sector is the third practice of Hewitsons’ three-pronged strategy review, but this has missed out on any new partners. Four lateral hires and three promotions in the past three years represents a fairly even split, with partners being recruited from larger firms rather than local rivals.
