Law firm Stephenson Harwood LLP has strengthened its international real estate capabilities with the arrival of partner Gaëtan Rogeau. He joins the firm's office in Paris, where he will lead the French real estate team.

His experience also includes advising in the hospitality sector. He joins the firm from DLA Piper where he spent nine years.
"Becoming a truly full-service practice is a core strategic ambition for our Paris office, which is the firm's European hub," said Nicolas Demigneux, Paris office managing partner, Stephenson Harwood. "Bringing on board a real estate specialist, like Gaëtan, brings us an important step closer to achieving this. His skills and experience will allow us to attract new clients, and to further expand our offering to existing ones."
"Gaëtan's expertise brings a new dimension to our international real estate capabilities," said Simon Brading, partner and head of real estate, Stephenson Harwood. "In particular, his notable experience advising on the redevelopment of industrial sites, is invaluable.
