In a busy start to the year, Linklaters and Simmons & Simmons have added to the benches in Europe, while Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld, Eversheds and DLA Piper have hired in the UK.
In Germany, Linklaters has taken on DLA Piper’s international group head of real estate Carsten Loll, as a partner in the Frankfurt and Munich offices. Loll will work closely alongside German practice group head Wolfram Kruger. His appointment brings Linklaters’ partner count in Germany to 64 partners.
