Former Managing Partner and Chief Executive Ian Jeffery will step down as a partner on 31 March 2021.

Having led the firm for 15 successful years until late 2019, Ian has recently completed the handover of leadership responsibilities to the firm’s new management team and will now move to the next stage of his career, focussing on strategy and innovation projects across the legal and professional services industry. As part of his wider range of activities, Ian will become a consultant to the firm from 1 April. Chair of Lewis Silkin, Michael Burd, commented: “Ian has contributed a huge amount to the growth and success of Lewis Silkin during several consecutive terms as Managing Partner, and we have all benefitted greatly from his skilful leadership.  As a great friend of the firm we wish him every success in the next stage of his career.  I am delighted that he will continue his association with us in a consultancy capacity, and have no doubt he will enjoy great success in his future ventures.”
