CLEARY GOTTLIEB Steen & Hamilton’s advice to Mittal Steel on its £17bn bid for Arcelor, led by Paris-based partner Jean-Pierre Vignaud, was the highlight of an exceptional year that saw turnover in London hit $63.5m (£36.3m).

The firm operates a classic lockstep – and a long one too at 14 years. The remuneration system is one reason why Cleary traditionally makes very few lateral hires.

However, the last year generated a handful, including those of Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer corporate partner Jürgen Sieger in Cologne and Allen & Overy London-based corporate partner Michael McDonald.

Outside Europe the firm launched its first mainland China office, with Cravath Swaine & Moore securities and capital markets partner Clayton Johnson opening its new Beijing office.
