Specialist insurance law firm Wotton + Kearney has welcomed Kieran Doyle and Sarah Woods as special counsels in its D&O and EPL practices.
 
Kieran joins the firm from Chubb where he was renowned for leading its large financial lines claims team, bringing with him what Wotton + Kearney described as “an unparalleled understanding of claims processes” and the associated management of all stakeholder expectations.

Woods, meanwhile, moves across from Sparke Helmore Lawyers, bringing with her extensive experience in advising corporations on a range of employment-related disputes. She is tasked with leading the growth of W+K’s EPL practice.

“Sarah and Kieran join the firm as established and highly respected lawyers within their respective specialities,” said W+K’s chief executive partner, David Kearney, “reflecting our recognition that buyers of legal services benefit from relationships with law firms which are acutely specialised across their chosen industries.”
