Sidley Austin just promoted 29 lawyers to partner across its US and European offices, which is actually down from the 38 people who made it last year. The firm also bumped 15 people up to counsel this round. Women represent just under half the new partner class, and the promotions kick in starting in January. New York led with nine new partners, followed by Chicago with six and Washington, DC with four. London got three promotions, with private equity attorney Florian Kamp, disputes lawyer Jonathan Lafferty, and finance specialist Azeem Sulemanji.

Global finance saw the most action with five partner promotions, while commercial litigation and private equity each added four. The rest of the new partners spread across restructuring, M&A, tax, white collar defense, insurance, and antitrust practices. Most of the promotions landed in US offices, with a couple going to Century City, Dallas, Los Angeles, Munich, and San Francisco.
