Trowers & Hamlins has bolstered its London office with the hire of two partners. The firm brought in banking and finance partner Paul Flood from Reynolds Porter Chamberlain (RPC) and pensions partner Martin McFall from regional firm asb law last month.

Flood, who was head of RPC’s finance practice, was previously one of the first UK lawyers involved in setting up the London office of legacy firm LeBoeuf Lamb Greene & MacRae.

He has a particular focus on aviation finance and has acted for Boeing on a number of projects in the UK and overseas. He also advised satellite company SeaLaunch on its $450m (£226m) financing.

McFall has joined from asb’s Crawley office where he was head of pensions. He advises on all aspects of pensions law including standalone scheme advisory issues and the pensions aspects of corporate transactions and outsourcing.

He works with a mix of private and public sector clients, including Northern Ireland Water Board, SERCO, Mowlem and Babcock International.

McFall told Legal Week: “I made the move because the nature of the work at Trowers is the kind of work that I like doing and they have got a good structure behind them. I will be playing a larger role at a larger City firm.”

Trowers’ head of pensions Diane Preston added: “His addition consolidates the team and shows that we are going places. He brings a lot of experience with him and will continue to support our public sector work and the pensions group.”
