The new partner cohort covers 10 practice groups and 7 of the firm’s 31 offices, with 85% in EMEA, and 15% in APAC. The largest number of promotions are within the Corporate, Disputes, and Energy Transition practices (50%), reflecting the needs of our clients, and the priority growth areas set out in Ashurst’s 2027 Strategy. Of the new partners, 40% are women, maintaining our five-year rolling average.
