The move sees Thomson Geer recruit partners Scott Gibson, Marc Wilshaw and Michael Bowen, along with a legal and support team of eight. The move will come into effect later this year, confirmed a statement offered to Lawyers Weekly by the firm.
Commenting on the move, Thomson Geer chief executive partner, Adrian Tembel said the recruitment of DLA Piper’s Perth-based corporate practice is in line with a strategy set out to grow the firm’s west coast offering.
“Not only is this move central and fundamental to our [long-term] Perth strategy but it is also a reinforcement of our national commitment to quality,” Mr Tembel said.
“I am very proud of our M&A team nationally led by David Zwi on the east coast. Adding this west coast group will take our national capability to, I believe, an even higher level.”
