Weil Gotshal elected a total of 21 lawyers to partner across the firm as a whole, with seven of the new partners based across the New York law firm's European network.

In London, Pierre Agyeman has been made a partner in the office's securitisation team, where he has spent eight years working with City securitisation chief Jacky Kelly. Agyeman specialises in residential mortgage-backed securitisations and collateralised debt obligations.
