"After nearly 16 years at King & Spalding in New York and Dubai, corporate partner Benjamin Newland recently left the firm to start his own company called Clear Corporate Services LLC…
Newland’s career path will now have him working out of Seville, a capital of the Andalusia region in southern Spain. As president of CCS, Newland will provide corporate management and administrative services to foreign investors, particularly within the area of shariah-compliant finance and investment transactions, in order to help facilitate international investment in the U.S. by building off the corporate practice he had at King & Spalding…
Newland has brought on Emily Hurd, a friend from Westchester County, New York, where he used to live, to serve in a business development role for CCS. Hurd is a former life sciences lawyer at Ropes & Gray in San Francisco who serves on the city council for Rye, New York."
Newland was also based in Rye until his move. The report is from Law.com.
