Firm Continues Global Litigation Buildout in London
LONDON, June 23, 2025 – Leading international law firm Proskauer is pleased to welcome Jonathon Egerton-Peters as a partner in its Litigation Department. Jonathan joins the Firm’s growing Commercial Disputes and International Arbitration practices and will sit in the Firm’s London office.
Jonathon serves as a trusted advocate and adviser in complex, high-stakes disputes, providing strategic counsel in international arbitrations and cross-border litigation and enforcements, including tax disputes, restructuring, competition and antitrust litigation.
“We’re excited to have Jonathon join our global litigation team. As clients increasingly look for cohesive cross-border support from their counsel, his deep experience across jurisdictions will be essential to our litigation platform as we continue to grow to meet increasing client demand in the U.S. and Europe,” said Bart Williams, Chair of the Firm’s Litigation Department.
Jonathon has represented many of the world’s leading corporations, investors, UHNWIs, entrepreneurs and sovereign states across jurisdictions, including the U.K., U.S., Cayman Islands, Hong Kong, Bermuda and British Virgin Islands. He has experience across a wide range of sectors, including finance, cryptocurrency, energy, retail, pharmaceuticals, real assets, tobacco, shipping, airlines and telecommunications.
“Jonathon brings sharp legal instincts, a practical approach to international arbitration and a strong understanding of how to support clients in fast-moving and high-stakes litigation. His experience is a valuable complement to our entire team in London and will play an important role in expanding the work we do for our corporate clients in the UK and internationally,” said Steven Davis, head of Proskauer’s London office.
“Joining a globally integrated team with such a strong cross-border footprint is an exciting next chapter for me. I’ve long admired Proskauer’s market-leading litigation and arbitration platform and I’m looking forward to helping clients solve their high-stakes disputes alongside my new teammates,” said Jonathon.
Jonathon is the fourth partner to join Proskauer’s global litigation department in the past year, including Kevin Abikoff, Bryan Sillaman and James Kitching. He is also the fifth partner that the Firm has welcomed in the London office in 2025 to date.
