Leading this week’s high-profile moves, Paul Hastings strengthened its corporate M&A practice with the hire of Eric Schiele from Kirkland & Ellis in New York. Schiele, who joins as global co-chair of M&A, brings extensive expertise in big-ticket M&A and public company board and special committee advisory work.
‘Eric is one of the most respected and accomplished M&A attorneys in the US and globally. His addition marks a major leap forward in strengthening our public company M&A platform,’ said firm chair Frank Lopez in a statement.
