JWS has added a new partner to its Melbourne office. Most recently a partner at Baker McKenzie, Charlie Detmold brings more than 20 years of domestic and international experience to the firm, having worked across Australia and Europe.

“I was drawn to JWS’ exceptional reputation and market position with top-tier clients, which offer a great opportunity to grow the finance practice in energy, infrastructure and other sectors,” he said.
“I am looking forward to working with the JWS team to deliver the outstanding level of client service the firm is known for.”
