Withers has announced its internal promotions for the coming year with the firm’s London office seeing the bulk of the promotions.

Six of the new partners sit within the London office. Dora Clarke and Sophie Dworetzsky have been promoted into the firm’s market-leading wealth planning team, while Emma Copestake and Bertie Hoskyns-Abrahall have been made up in real estate. The firm has also promoted Sue Medder in trust litigation and Emma Sanderson in employment.

Outside the UK, Roberta Crivellaro has been made up in Milan while in the US Steve Liss has become a partner in the New Haven planning team and Justin Zamparelli in the New York corporate practice. Last year the firm made up the same number of partners, with five promotions in London.

The latest promotion round takes the firm to 114 partners with the Geneva, Hong Kong and Greenwich, US offices missing out. Global managing director Margaret Robertson said: “We have invested heavily in the firm this year and our growing presence in the US, Europe and Asia has led to increased demand from clients.”
