White & Case has recruited another senior Herbert Smith Freehills (HSF) partner in Australia with the hire of the firm's global co-head of construction and infrastructure disputes.
Hamish Macpherson, who had been a partner at the firm since 2005, is the latest to depart after a 10-strong team left to launch Melbourne and Sydney bases for White & Case. Macpherson will join the US firm's global commercial litigation practice in Sydney.
Macpherson, who co-led HSF's global construction and infrastructure disputes practice alongside Dubai partner Craig Shepherd, has advised major clients including Australian construction groups Lendlease and Multiplex on disputes arising from real estate and infrastructure developments and was also the lead relationship partner for Leighton Group.
