The firm has identified competition as one of its target areas for London and demonstrated this with the hire of A&O telecoms partner Chris Watson, who joined Dechert’s competition practice in February 2006. At the end of last year the firm also bolstered its UK office with the hire of real estate finance partner Kathleen O’Donnell, who joined from LG.
Dechert also snared corporate partner Graham Defries and capital markets partner Wayne Rapozo from Weil.
