Margaret Robertson
CEO
Margaret is CEO of the firm.
She trained with the firm and now leads the firm and its development internationally.
She is passionate about growing the firm’s capabilities to ensure that we can best serve our clients globally; and that we continue to attract clients who need exceptional, tailored and multi-jurisdictional advice from leading lawyers across the world. The firm now has over 1000 people across the world, and has advised 51% of the Sunday Times Rich List as well as significant numbers of the Huron list in Asia and Forbes in the US.
She especially enjoys working with the rest of the management team to set the firm’s strategy. Recently this led to our entering into our Formal Law Alliance in Singapore to create Withers KhattarWong, and further strengthening our presence in Asia-Pacific through openings in Tokyo and Sydney.
Margaret has been recognised in The Lawyer’s ‘Hot 100’ report for 2016 as one of the leading law firm managers in the sector.

Moi en une minute
My life at Withers is very different from the picture presented in the 70s tv show Justice but actually it's just as much fun.
