McDermott Will & Emery Adds Byrne to Its New York Office

International law firm McDermott Will & Emery is continuing to build its insurance-sector capabilities with the addition of Jane M. Byrne to its New York office.

Byrne is the most recent arrival to the growing litigation group with new teams in New York, Miami, Delaware and London over the past year. This includes partners Joshua Simon, Warren Haskel and Dmitriy Tishyevich and their teams joining from Kirkland & Ellis in March. Late last year, Felicia Perlman, co-head of McDermott’s Restructuring & Insolvency group, joined from Skadden.

Byrne previously served as co-chair of Quinn Emanuel’s Insurance and Reinsurance Litigation Group.
