UK - Weil Gotshal & Manges to realign London private equity practice

Weil Gotshal & Manges is reportedly realigning its London private equity practice around a core group of premium clients in order to bolster its profitability and avoid 'diluting' its service. The refocusing is understood to be driven in part by the London private equity team receiving a series of first-time instructions from 30 private equity and hedge fund clients over the last 18 months.
