Dewey & LeBoeuf’s London managing partner Peter Sharp has agreed a deal to take a team of City litigation partners to Morgan Lewis & Bockius, while US corporate heavyweight Morton Pierce is joining White & Case along with seven other partners.
Sharp, who resigned from Dewey this morning, will be joined at Morgan Lewis’s City base by fellow London litigation partners David Waldron – who co-chairs both the firm’s litigation group outside of the US and the energy litigation practice group – and Nick Greenwood.
