Based on the Family team’s expertise and reputation for handling complex disputes for high net worth and high profile individuals, its client demand far exceeded its current team resources; and thus, the team began to actively recruit for another partner.

The team sought an absolute "star Family partner" with excellent technical skills, proven client-facing/developing skills and an entrepreneurial outlook. Further, this person had to have the ability to anticipate the needs of, and provide a quality service to, increasingly sophisticated clients. Additionally, this person had to be bright, enthusiastic and above all, driven.

After generating a detailed, in-depth research document, which included feedback on recommended targets from known industry experts, a very focused shortlist was agreed upon. The favoured candidate was approached, and in a very short period of time this candidate was given an offer to join Mishcon de Reya and did so. In addition, this partner was able to bring along his associate.
