Winston Taylor completes historic transatlantic combination
Adam Griffiths
Winston & Strawn and Taylor Wessing’s UK-led business have officially launched as a single combined firm, Winston Taylor.
One of the largest transatlantic firms, with more than 1,400 lawyers spanning the US, the UK, Europe, Latin America, and the Middle East, Winston Taylor is “built to meet clients’ evolving global needs for counsel”.
Adam Griffiths, corporate partner and head of Winston Taylor Dublin office, said: “Ireland sits at the intersection of US investment, European regulation and some of the world’s fastest-growing innovation sectors.
“We’re the only English-speaking common law jurisdiction in the EU, which is hugely attractive to clients. As Winston Taylor, we are building a genuinely transatlantic platform in Dublin designed for that reality - bringing together deep local market knowledge with integrated U.S., U.K., and European capability, and helping clients capitalise on Ireland’s increasingly important role in international investment flows.
“We have grown quickly in Dublin, attracting leading legal talent and building a broad practice across corporate, tax, private wealth, employment, real estate, finance, IP, regulatory, data privacy and disputes. Now our team of almost 50 people forms part of Winston Taylor’s integrated global platform of more than 1,400 lawyers supporting clients across the world’s key investment and innovation markets.”
