International law firm CMS is pleased to announce the
appointment of Vivian Walry as Managing Partner of its Luxembourg
office, along with the appointment of Aurélien Hollard to
the Management Board.
A founding partner of CMS in Luxembourg, Vivian has played a
pivotal role in the development of the firm, notably leading the
banking & finance practice for the past 13 years and serving on
the management board since January 2023. In his new role, Vivian
will coordinate the firm’s operations and bring strategic
vision to strengthen the firm’s continued growth and
innovation.
I am truly honoured to have been
chosen to lead CMS in Luxembourg. I am excited to build on the
strong foundation laid by Frédéric, and I look
forward to working closely with our talented team to drive our
vision forward. Together, we will continue delivering the highest
standards of service to our clients while fostering an environment
that promotes growth, innovation, and collaboration. I am confident
that, with the support of the management board and our dedicated
professionals, we are well-positioned for the future. Vivian Walry
Vivian succeeds Frédéric, whose term as Managing
Partner saw the firm grow exponentially, establishing it as one of
the 10 largest law firms in Luxembourg. Frédéric will
remain actively involved in shaping the firm’s future,
notably in his role as head of the tax practice.
I am grateful for the opportunity to
have served as Managing Partner and for the trust the firm has
placed in me over the years. The growth and success we’ve
seen would not have been possible without the dedication of our
team. I look forward to supporting the firm in a more focused role
within the tax practice, knowing that the firm’s leadership
is in capable hands with Vivian at the helm. Frédéric Feyten
Looking ahead, the firm’s leadership will continue under
the guidance of the Management Board. Since its implementation at
the beginning of 2023, this collective leadership model has proven
highly effective, fostering enhanced collaboration and drawing
insights from across the firm to create a more inclusive and
dynamic decision-making environment. The board now includes
Managing Partner, Vivian Walry, Renaud Dupont, and newly appointed
member, Aurélien Hollard. With his extensive experience as
head of our investment funds practice, Aurélien brings both
deep expertise and a fresh perspective that will be invaluable in
helping shape the firm’s future.
