Proskauer has promoted five London lawyers to partner, all in its corporate practice, accounting for nearly a quarter of its 21 global promotions.
The London tally matches 2025 and is up from three in 2024, with the firm also adding 14 lateral partners to its City office since the start of last year.
Proskauer has promoted five lawyers to partner in London for the second consecutive year, as the US firm continues to expand its City office.
The new London partners are Charlotte Boylin, Dave Hill, Rachel Lowe, James May and Nick Wardle, all members of the firm's corporate department.
They are among 21 lawyers promoted to partner globally across six offices. London accounts for almost a quarter of the new partners, making it the firm's second largest promotion group outside New York.
The five London promotions match last year's tally and are up from three in 2024. Globally, Proskauer has made up 21 partners this year, compared with 22 in 2025 and 15 in 2024.
London hiring push
The promotions follow a busy period of lateral recruitment in London, where Proskauer has been building its private capital, finance and tax practices.
The firm has added 14 partners in London since the beginning of 2025, including tax partner Adam Blakemore from Hogan Lovells Cadwalader earlier this month.
Other recent London arrivals include US tax specialist Julio Castro from KPMG, real estate finance partner Usman Khan from McDermott and fund finance partner Mei Mei Wong from DLA Piper.
The investment comes as Proskauer's London business continues to grow. The office generated $226.8 million in revenue in 2025, up 45% on the previous year.
All promotions take effect on 1 November 2026.
