Clyde & Co corporate partner Andy Tromans has joined Willkie Farr & Gallagher as a partner in the firm's corporate and financial services practice in London.
Tromans is the third partner to leave Clydes in the past four months.
He will join Willkie Farr's insurance team. His practice includes advising on M&A transactions, capital raisings, the establishment of new insurance vehicles, and matters involving the Prudential Regulation Authority, Financial Conduct Authority and EU regulatory regimes.
The news follows the departure of Clydes head of corporate Philip Rogers in July to join Brown Rudnick, where he became the head of the firm's corporate emerging markets division.
In August, Berwin Leighton Paisner (BLP) hired Geraldine Quirk from Clydes as a partner in its London insurance practice.
Clydes posted an 8% hike in revenue in the 2014-15 financial year and broke its target for revenue growth in Asia, according to unaudited figures released by the firm in August this year.
The firm reported revenue of £395m in 2014-15, up from £365m the previous year.
It also posted a 10% rise in profit per equity partner (PEP) to £660,000, up from £600,000.
