London-based insurance specialty firm Clyde & Co has opened offices in Chicago and Washington, D.C., with the hire of 10 partners from Troutman Sanders.
The team, which handles a range of insurance coverage, trial and litigation work, includes Troutman Sanders’ Chicago managing partner, Eileen Bower, who will lead Clyde’s new office in that city alongside Troutman Sanders insurance litigation partner Clint Cameron. A Clyde spokesman said that a group of associates and other staff will follow the partners from Troutman Sanders, but that negotiations over those moves are still ongoing.
