Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 71707, member: 636"] The law firm Mayer Brown has elevated 36 lawyers to its partnership, a figure slightly lower than the previous year's total. It also promoted 21 attorneys to counsel. This combined group of 57 represents a smaller cohort than the year before. Women constitute 39 percent of the new partner class. A majority of the promotions occurred within the United States, with the firm’s Chicago office seeing the largest number. The banking and finance practice received the most new partners, followed by litigation and corporate practices. The firm’s chair, Jon Van Gorp, stated that the promoted lawyers exemplify the organization's core values and dedication to client service. These appointments will become effective at the start of the next calendar year. [/QUOTE]
