Commenting, Fiona Carlin, Baker McKenzie EMEA+ Chief Executive, said, “With Europe currently undergoing an unprecedented scale of energy transition, Christopher’s arrival at Baker McKenzie couldn’t be more timely. His breadth of knowledge and industry-leading expertise will prove invaluable to clients and prospective clients as they seek to navigate the increasingly complex energy landscape, which could be further complicated by Brexit.
