Kirkland & Ellis International LLP‘s contentious regulatory practice draws upon the collective experience of both the financial regulatory, and the government and internal investigations groups. The arrival of ’fantastic new hire‘ Julia Dixon from Linklaters LLP in November 2021 to co-chair the team alongside Marcus Thompson signalled the beginning of a concerted period of growth and development for the group. The partner bench has further expanded with the lateral hire of Shruti Chandhok from Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft LLP in June 2022, and the promotion of Patrick Navein.
