Salans’ lateral figures are skewed by its 2006 formation of a Berlin base by taking a 12-partner team from Haarmann Hemmelrath. The London partnership has grown consistently by two a year. In 2004 both appointments were lateral hires, in 2005 there were two internal promotions and in 2006 the pendulum swung back to laterals, with two litigators joining from Lester Aldridge.
London has seen slower growth than Paris and Eastern Europe, which have had the lion’s share of both promotions and laterals in the past three years. Out of 15 internal promotions, London has had two compared with four in Paris and three in Moscow.
