Speaking about the appointment, JWS managing partner Jeremy Davis said that the firm is “excited” to have Ms Dean join its ranks.

“Jennifer is a very talented lawyer, who has built a strong reputation for her specialist expertise in regulatory issues impacting the technology, media and telecommunications sectors,” he said.

“Jennifer’s appointment will see us deepen our regulatory expertise in the TMT sector.”
