As first noted by the American Lawyer, Kennedys is adding two new offices to its US offerings, opening spaces in Los Angeles and Seattle as part of its “ongoing strategic expansion” in America. These new additions will increase the firm’s US office count to 12 and total office count to 47. Am Law has more details:

“Kennedys offices in North America have seen strong growth over the last three years, with a 62% increase in headcount. We now have 215 attorneys servicing our clients across the U.S.,” said Meg Catalano, regional managing partner in the US, in a statement. “The opening of these new offices expands our physical presence on the West Coast, allowing us to service increasing client demand across the region.”

Kennedys first established itself in the US in 2017, and attributed much of its revenue and profit growth last year to its presence and performance in the US.

Best of luck to the firm as it continues its US expansion.
