Mayer Brown has promoted six London lawyers to its partnership as part of a 39-strong global promotions round.

The London promotions, which take the City office to 100 partners, are on par with last year when the transatlantic firm made up six new partners in the City out of a 32-strong round globally.

Outside London, the promotions, which will take effect from the New Year, include eight new partners in Chicago, five each in New York and Washington respectively, three in Palo Alto, as well as one new partner in the firm's Charlotte office.
