Baker McKenzie Welcomes Sam Trowbridge as Partner in London Tax Team

Baker McKenzie announces the appointment of Sam Trowbridge to its London-based Tax Partner roster, effective 29 September.

Sam Trowbridge joins from Kirkland & Ellis, where he specialised in the tax structuring of cross-border private equity and M&A transactions.

His expertise spans a diverse array of sponsor strategies, buyouts, infrastructure, credit, and real estate, as well as work on capital markets and debt finance, management tax planning, restructuring, tax litigation, and fund structuring matters.

Ed Poulton, London Managing Partner, remarked:

“Sam’s experience, working closely with an impressive portfolio of clients across an international network, make him an ideal fit for our own world-class team operating seamlessly across borders.”

Jessica Eden, Head of Tax in London, added:

“I’m very excited to be welcoming Sam to our brilliant team. His market experience will add real strength to our existing bench in Tax, while his work on M&A transactions are the perfect complement to recent hires into our Transactional team in London.”
