Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer Bolsters Private Funds and Securities Practice with Key Hire

To strengthen its global transactions group and expand its presence in the United States, Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer announced the appointment of Tim Clark as the new Global Head of the Private Funds and Securities Practice. The London-founded international law firm has been expanding its team in the U.S. with a recent hiring spree to boost its capabilities.
 

Tim Clark brings a wealth of experience to Freshfields, having spent over four years at Goodwin Procter, where he showcased his expertise in the private equity fund formation practice. Previously, Clark held a leadership position at Sidley Austin, further solidifying his reputation as a trusted advisor in fund formation, secondary deals, and regulatory affairs for private equity and private capital clients. Upon Clark's departure, a Goodwin spokesperson conveyed the firm's best wishes for his future endeavors.
 
Pamela Marcogliese, Head of U.S. Transactions at Freshfields, emphasized the strategic importance of building a robust private capital practice in the United States. With this latest addition, Freshfields' U.S. team now boasts approximately 350 qualified lawyers from New York, Washington, D.C., and Silicon Valley offices. Globally, the firm's lawyer count reaches 2,800.
 
This hiring marks just one of several critical appointments from rival law firms that Freshfields has made since the beginning of June. Alongside Tim Clark, the firm has welcomed eight other U.S. partners, including two finance specialists, two antitrust litigators, and four crisis, regulatory, and risk management experts.
 
Freshfields' success in recruiting top talent has been a trend observed among other London-founded law firms seeking growth opportunities in the U.S. market. Notably, Clifford Chance recently established a new office in Houston, while Allen & Overy is pursuing a proposed merger with New York firm Shearman & Sterling.
 
In response to his new role, Tim Clark admired Freshfields' recent accomplishments in challenging incumbent players in the U.S. marketplace. This admiration underscores the firm's reputation for driving innovation and achieving notable successes, positioning them as a formidable force in the legal industry. With Clark now leading the Private Funds and Securities Practice, Freshfields is poised to solidify its position as a leading global player, offering top-tier legal services to clients worldwide.
