“We are delighted to have Adam join us,” said Pete Ruegger, Chairman of Simpson Thacher’s Executive Committee. “Adam is one of England’s leading M&A lawyers, and we are confident that he will help us build on our success in London and enable us to meet more of the needs of our clients in the U.K. and globally.”

Mr. Signy said: “I've had a very enjoyable and rewarding career as a partner of Clifford Chance for 22 years, helping to build one of the best law firms in the world. I will miss my many friends and colleagues at Clifford Chance. However, the opportunity to join the London office of Simpson Thacher to help them build an English law corporate practice was one I could not refuse.”
