The trans-Atlantic firm Thursday announced that Stacey Kern of the Chicago office and R. Michael Sweeney Jr. of the Washington, D.C., office, are the newest members of the committee, whose duties include approving budgets and setting policy for Eversheds' U.S. operations.

Kern and Sweeney replaced Atlanta partner Wade Stribling and Austin, Texas, partner Lino Mendiola III after their four-year terms ended on the committee on June 20.
