Law firm announces string of promotions

International law firm Pinsent Masons has announced three promotions for its senior leadership team within the Birmingham office.

Accordingly, Rami Labib, Rebecca Rowley (pictured), and Rhian Critchell has been promoted as partners.

Rami’s promotion as a commercial partner will enable the firm to continue grow their highly successful Tier 1 ranked Higher Education practice and will give him the platform to lead and develop cross-sector Supply of Labour offering. 

Both areas are highly regulated and fast changing, bringing clear opportunities for growth. 

Property expert Rebecca has unique expertise in public-private joint ventures, public sector infrastructure and regeneration grant funding. Large-scale mixed-use developments by both private developers and public sector are a particular focus.  

Rhian is a highly specialised corporate energy partner. Given the number of offshore energy transactions expected in the UK in the next few years, Rhian will be instrumental to the firm’s delivery of those transactions.

Speaking about the promotions, partner at the law firm and head of Birmingham office Gayle Ditchburn said: “Rami’s entrepreneurial spirit, ambition and collaborative approach give him a great platform to his partnership at the firm.

“Rebecca has a wealth of experience in structuring large-scale complex city centre and urban developments and is a natural leader to further grow our practice in this area.

“Rhian is an enthusiastic and highly valuable member of the Corporate Energy team, and her promotion will be pivotal to us maintaining our position as a leading adviser within the Energy Sector”
