Cravath, Swaine & Moore yesterday announced that corporate partner and deputy presiding partner C. Allen Parker will become the firm’s presiding partner in January and that the man who now holds that title, Evan Chesler, will move into the newly created position of firm chairman.
Parker, 57, who joined Cravath in 1984 and rose to partner six years later, has worked his way through the firm’s leadership ranks since then. He managed the corporate department’s associates from 2001 to 2004, led the department from 2009 to 2010, and became deputy presiding partner in January 2007, when Chesler succeeded litigator Robert Joffe in the firm’s top management post.
