The office will be led by Ian Bagshaw, the firm said Tuesday. Bagshaw was co-head of White & Case's global private equity practice before stepping away from Big Law in 2021 to serve as chair of a startup.
While plenty of Perkins Coie's mature technology clients have business in London, the new office is seeking to win work from local and European venture capital, private equity, and startup clients, Bagshaw said in an interview.
"We aim to quickly become a leading advisor and law firm of choice for European companies and private equity firms navigating the technological and economic disruptions of our era," said Bill Malley, firmwide managing partner.
"This is a unique opportunity to join an incredible firm with an energetic and focused group of high-performing lawyers, and we're excited to get to work on our clients' behalf," Bagshaw said of the firm's new London team.
