International law firm McDermott Will & Emery is delighted to announce the arrival of one of the best known corporate teams in Italy. The new arrivals, comprised of three partners, Giancarlo Castorino, Ettore Scandale and Emidio Cacciapuoti, accompanied by a team of 4 counsel and 10 fee earners, significantly strengthen the Firm’s Italian capabilities in the area of transactions.

The team joins from the Milan office of King & Wood Mallesons (KWM). Giancarlo Castorino had been that office’s Managing Partner, succeeding Ettore Scandale who previously held the role.

The new, bolstered McDermott office will comprise 9 partners, 6 counsel, 15 associates and 8 trainees.

“We are very excited to welcome Giancarlo, Ettore and Emidio to the McDermott network”, said Carlo Maria Paolella, head of the Firm’s Italian practice. “The arrival of the new team will help establish critical mass in Milan and instantly double the size of our local operations. Furthermore, they bring with them the knowledge, expertise and reputation of a highly regarded group, which has a solid reputation in the European market. McDermott’s strong corporate and financial transactions presence in Paris, London, Germany, the United States and China will lead to new synergies and exciting opportunities within our international platform as we continue to deliver leading-edge service for our clients.”
