Recognised for its deep specialism in the financial services and investment management sectors, the partnership group at Dechert LLP is equipped to handle a range of contentious, non-contentious, and transactional mandates on behalf of asset management and private equity firms. The team offers assistance with litigation, regulatory issues, and transactions, although it has particular strengths on the contentious front and regularly represents clients in disputes arising from claims of harassment and discrimination. Spearheading the department is the ‘highly experienced’ Jason Butwick, whose practice spans partnership agreements, partnership disputes, and employee share schemes and incentives, among other areas. Other key members of the team include Jennifer Hill and Alexis Westwood.
