Skadden just stole a massive legal shark to bolster their London war room. The firm snatched arbitration heavyweight Sophie Lamb KC away from Latham & Watkins to run complex disputes. She brings twenty-five years of fighting experience before international tribunals. This move marks the second major European recruit this week after they grabbed Rafique Bachour for the Brussels office.
Lamb specializes in those terrifying lawsuits that destroy entire companies if things go wrong. Her resume covers everything from commercial deals to climate arguments and investment laws. She actually argues inside the UK Supreme Court and holds a seat on the London Court of Arbitration. Jeremy London claims her deep networks will help clients survive high-stakes cross-border battles.
Ryan Junck insists her elite skills make her an instant asset for sensitive matters. She arrives after nearly a decade at Latham and a stint at Debevoise & Plimpton. Lamb says the global platform at Skadden offers better chances to navigate messy international fights. Legal rankings consistently place her at the very top of the food chain.
Big law firms are aggressively poaching talent everywhere right now. Paul Hastings managed to lure John Buretta away from Cravath Swaine & Moore recently to co-chair their litigation department. Quinn Emanuel also joined the raiding party earlier this month when they recruited William Charles from Milbank for their London squad.
