Phillips' arrival marks the seventh new partner to join the firm's London office over the past year as it continues to expand in the U.K. market. Led by Robert Weekes, the former managing partner for Squire Patton Boggs in London, the new team of lawyers includes Robin Baillie, Andrew Knight, Paul Muscutt, Cathryn Williams, and Laurence Winston. Phillips joins the firm from the London office of Squire Patton Boggs, where she was a partner in its Litigation Group.

"I am absolutely delighted that Nicola is joining our team. Her expertise and experience knit together a number of the firm's focus areas, from fraud investigations and asset recovery actions to contractual disputes and professional negligence," said Robert Weekes, managing partner of the firm's London office. "Through her work with banks, asset based lenders and other financial institutions worldwide she has forged strong relationships within the financial services and insurance sectors which will help us to continue our rapid growth trajectory in London and beyond. My previous experience working with Nicola leaves me no doubt that she will fit seamlessly into the team here, as well as provide immediate value for clients."

"I am excited to reunite with my former colleagues, and work across our offices to craft solutions for clients navigating commercial litigation matters and worldwide fraud investigations," Phillips said.

Phillips earned her law degree, with honors, from the University of Kent.
