Schillings promotes two new Partners, Natasha Hibbert and Adam Wilkinson, growing Partnership to 25
We are proud to share that Natasha Hibbert and Adam Wilkinson will be joining the Schillings Partnership, having been both promoted from Directors in the Legal and Critical Risks teams, respectively.
An expert problem-solver, Adam Wilkinson has been at Schillings for a decade, most recently leading the Critical Risks team. He specialises in private diplomacy, dealing with transnational repression and managing security risks. Prior to Schillings he spent eight years in the UK military. Adam joins the Partnership with a focus on Schillings’ commercial and political conflict resolution offering; in particular, for clients facing high stakes issues in East or West Africa, the Middle East and Asia.
Natasha Hibbert specialises in defamation, privacy and information law and is a trusted advisor to clients facing complex reputation, privacy and security issues. Natasha leads high-profile, cross jurisdictional disputes, coordinating legal, communications and intelligence strategies on behalf of global brands and individuals. Her strategic leadership was recognised at the recent Citywealth Future Leaders Awards 2024, where Natasha was awarded gold for Future Leader Initiative of the Year.

"We are delighted to welcome Adam and Natasha to the Partnership. At Schillings, we’re proud to have a strong internal Partnership promotion tradition, nurturing and investing in our people. It’s been wonderful to watch both Adam and Natasha grow in their expertise and leadership over recent years. I know that the diversity of thought, skills and perspectives they’ll bring to our now 25-strong Partnership will allow us to continue our trajectory of growth and success over the years ahead."
