When international law firms go on hiring sprees, it is a sure sign that the economy is improving. Top-level hires through legal recruitment mean that firms have the business to keep attorneys busy and funds available to meet salary requirements. Recently, several law firms with established business around the globe have been expanding.

In Chicago, Winston & Strawn LLP recently hired fund formation attorney Bradley S. Mandel as Of Counsel, according to a press release. Winston & Strawn has 15 offices spread out across Asia, Europe and North America, and is one of the more prominent commercial law firms in the world.

“The depth of Brad’s experience in advising top tier firms investing in a wide range of transactions and industries will be highly valued by global clients across all of our offices,” said Winston & Strawn corporate chairman Steven J. Gavin, according to the press release.

International law firms are also expanding their office size in other metro areas in response to new employees and space demands. For example, international law firm Covington & Burling LLP recently signed a letter of intent to occupy office space in a $950 million tenant project in Washington, D.C., according to Commercial Property Executive. The law firm has over 800 attorneys spread out in offices around the world.
