Law firm Campbell Johnston Clark (CJC) has strengthened its Admiralty and casualty teams in London and Singapore with new partner hires.
Paul Apostolis has joined the Singapore office from HFW, while Andrew Gray has been added in London from Clyde & Co.
"Both Paul and Andrew have extensive casualty experience and are proficient in all aspects of the dry side of casualties that necessarily arise from incidents," CJC said.
Alistair Johnston, director and one of the three founders of CJC, added that the appointments were indicative of the importance the firm places on its Admiralty and casualty work.
“Paul and Andrew bring a wealth of experience with them and will play a key role as we further strengthen our position in this important sector of our well-established Admiralty practice," he said.
"CJC has been involved in many high-profile casualties over recent years, from containership fires to large-scale groundings and major collisions. Reinforcing the knowledge and expertise we have in these areas is critical as we grow our wet practice internationally.”
CJC is also strengthening its presence in Asia in the coming weeks, with another senior individual joining its Singapore team from HFW Singapore.
“We are very excited that these new partners are joining CJC,” Johnstone said. “Having established the firm just eight years ago we have bided our time before expanding the team at a senior partnership level. Now is our time to move forward and these three outstandingly talented new partners will ensure that we do just that.”
