Last week King & Spaulding moved its real estate capital markets practice to New York from Atlanta, and also added Andrew H. Charles as a partner from Cravath, Swaine & Moore. At least six Atlanta attorneys will relocate to NY; while 30 or more real estate lawyers will remain in Atlanta and Houston, the firm expects to have up to 25 NY lawyers in this practice. As the NY office sees growth, the Washington office lost three corporate partners to Hogan & Hartson. The firm will be active in lateral recruiting efforts to fill those spots.
