肖志岳（Jeremy Xiao）近日作为法律顾问重新加入史密夫律师事务所北京代表处。

肖律师曾在史密夫做了十年的合伙人，其中在北京做了五年的管理合伙人。2007年末，他离开史密夫，加入瑞士信贷集团担任中国投行业务联席董事长。据悉，他这次重回史密夫任职以兼职形式，主要帮助该所接洽中国的一些顶级跨国公司。同时，他将保留在瑞信的职位。

Herbert Smith has announced that former partner Jeremy Xiao has returned as a consultant to the firm. Xiao will work out of the firm’s Beijing office on a part-time basis.

Xiao previously left the firm to take up the role of managing director with Credit Suisse in 2007. Before joining Credit Suisse, he had worked in Herbert Smith for more than 10 years as a partner, including five years as a managing partner of the firm’s Beijing office. Landmark deals he advised on include the multi-billion dollar IPOs of Sinopec, China Construction Bank and ICBC.

He will retain his role in Credit Suisse in addition to his new appointment with Herbert Smith. A source at the firm said that Xiao would focus on supporting the development of the firm’s 20-partner Greater China practice, including helping to strengthen further the top-tier practice’s relationships with a number of China’s leading multinationals.
