Gibson Dunn just snagged Robbie Sinclair from A&O Shearman to beef up their London employment litigation game. The dude spent 11 years there and made partner back in 2019, handling messy employment cases, whistleblower stuff, and regulatory headaches for finance clients. He teams up with James Cox, who launched their employment shop after jumping ship from Ashurst.
The hire fits their plan to stack more litigators after killing it on the deals side. They want someone who can handle boardroom drama, investigations, and High Court battles when things get spicy. Sinclair brings expertise in business protection cases and corporate transaction support, which helps their M&A and private equity clients when deals go sideways or disputes pop off.
Gibson Dunn has been on a hiring spree lately, pulling in an M&A partner from Latham and promoting disputes lawyers while building their arbitration crew with a KC.
