A month after losing its former leader and two other capital markets partners to Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer, Wall Street mainstay Fried, Frank, Harris, Shriver & Jacobson is bringing on two tax partners from King & Spalding and Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe.
In London, where The Am Law Daily reported earlier this week on Fried Frank’s hire of Kirkland & Ellis private equity partner Graham White, the firm has brought back former associate Nick Thornton from Orrick. Thornton, who specializes in complex tax issues and headed Orrick’s U.K. tax practice, left Fried Frank for the firm in September 2010.
