Osborne Clarke has announced its 2011 promotions, with five lawyers made up to the firm's partnership.
The promotions, which took effect on 1 May, see the firm's Bristol office gain four new partners while the London office receives one.
The promotions include two women and three men, and are spread across the firm's construction, regulatory, M&A/corporate finance, real estate litigation and real estate development practices.
The five promotions mark Osborne Clarke's largest partnership round since 2007, when six were made up. Last year the firm added two to its partnership – one in Bristol and one in Thames Valley – while the year before three were made up in Cologne.
Managing partner Simon Beswick (pictured) commented: "Demand is exceptionally strong in our focus sectors and this has been a key factor in the promotion process. The size of this round of promotions is testament to how well placed the business is and its commitment to growing in the future."
The news comes after Osborne Clarke announced its financial results last week (5 May), posting 8% revenue growth for the financial year ending 30 April.
Firmwide revenue climbed £6.6m from last year to £90.3m on the back of 6% growth in UK revenues and 18% growth in Germany, where the firm has offices in Munich and Cologne.
