DAC Beachcroft is welcoming the New Year with its very first office in France.
Announcing the expansion, the insurance law firm said the Paris-based team will be led by partners Vladimir Rostan d’Ancezune and Christophe Wucher-North. Both made the switch from Parisian firm HMN & Partners.
“This is an exciting development, part of our international strategy to grow our footprint in strategically significant centres and continue to strengthen the international support we offer our clients,” commented DAC Beachcroft managing partner David Pollitt.
“Paris is an important hub for international insurance work, as well as a gateway into the strong domestic market. Our ambition is to be the leading provider of insurance legal advice in France.”
A founding member of alliance LegalignGlobal, DAC Beachcroft has offices in Chile, Colombia, Ireland, Mexico, Singapore, Spain, and the US, as well as 11 locations in the UK. It said the newly opened French site will focus on global and domestic insurance and industrial risks.
International development director Gustavo Blanco noted that Rostan d’Ancezune and Wucher-North have a portfolio of work that aligns closely with the breadth and depth of DAC Beachcroft’s insurance practice.
