SNR Denton's EMEA arm has announced its 2012 partner promotions, with three lawyers made up to the senior rank.

The promotions are all based in the firm's two UK offices, including two in London and one in Milton Keynes. Two of the promotions are in real estate, Simon Masri in London and Dan Kidd in Milton Keynes, alongside one in dispute resolution – London lawyer Sam Coulthard.

The firm said that in addition to the newly promoted partners, it had made five lateral hires across the EMEA region during 2011-12. The news also comes after SNR Denton's US arm recently announced the promotion of 17 new partners.
