Fourth Edition £15.00 DEBO NWAUZU EDITOR FOURTH EDITION £15.00 DEBO NWAUZU EDITOR This book is dedicated to my mother from whom I learned that worrying about what others think of you ultimately limits your horizons. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS y the time Black Letter Law 2008 was launched last October, Lehman Brothers had just imploded and I was shaken and gripped by the sheer scale of the catastrophe. Since that time, many talented young, and not-so-young, people have lost Btheir livelihoods in a wave of retrenchment that I do not believe the legal profession has ever seen. Yet Law remains a very popular vocation for many ethnic minorities. I would hope that this book serves as an encouragement to the discouraged in the current economic climate. Its contents show that there are many trailblazers and those who continue to make legal history. Being a perennial optimist, I am hopeful that the best is very much yet to come. On another positive note, I was very surprised (as I am now a non- practising solicitor) to be named by The Lawyer as one of this year’s Hot 100 lawyers. I do not like having my Campaigners photograph taken, but somewhat 18 The Lawyer Hot 100 2008 19 The Lawyer Hot 100 2008 to my amazement enjoyed the magazine shoot which took place on an unglamorous rooftop, as befits this recessionary time. I share that accolade with everyone in this book, as I received it partly because of this publication, which is about you - you are the truly “hot” ones!

September 2009 4 FOREWORD am delighted to be asked to write the foreword to the 2009 edition of Black Letter Law. A mere three years after its inception, not only has this publication continued to increase in size, it is also firmly Iestablished in the legal profession’s consciousness. The cover of Black Letter Law speaks of “showcasing achievement in law”. That is precisely what this publication accomplishes. It highlights a considerable well of talent in the legal profession from which we all can, and we all should, draw and drink. There is, however, another thirst to be quenched, namely the encouragement of future generations of diverse lawyers. Everyone who features in this publication is an inspiration, both for those who are already interested in a career in law and also for those who have not yet made that decision (or who do not yet even know what being a lawyer is or what it involves). Indeed they are an inspiration for all of us already in the legal profession. My hope is that we all take on the responsibility of being role models and that each of us will talk to young people about why we became lawyers, what the legal profession brings to us (and what we bring to it) so that all young people know what it might mean to them to be a lawyer. I aspire to a legal profession that is as diverse as all the people it might be called upon to represent. Black Letter Law brings us closer to making that aspiration a black letter reality in the future. My request is therefore that lawyers and members of the judiciary who feature in this publication will take up opportunities where they develop, and even develop their own opportunities, to be role models. I look forward to reading future publications of Black Letter Law that demonstrate that we have succeeded in inspiring a future generation of lawyers even more diverse than the one I am proud to be celebrating in this year’s publication.

  • ?Mckenna Long?????Dentons??????
    ?McKenna Long?????Dentons?????? Consolidation at the top of the global legal industry is showing no signs of stopping with the confirmation that Dentons, fresh off its last big international tie-up, wants to again walk down the aisle — this time with U.S.-bound McKenna Long & Aldridge LLP. Denton's potential addition of the Atlanta-based, 575-lawyer McKenna Long would add a significant new branch to Dentons' growing international structure, which now includes about 2,500 lawyers in 50 countries. If completed, the merger would bring Dentons to a top-three spot in the industry by size, with about 3,100 lawyers. In McKenna Long, Dentons would acquire a well-regarded but somewhat undifferentiated general services firm with solid roots in government contracts, established offices in a handful of major U.S. markets, a network of Washington contacts and no significant international profile. Among its more notable offerings is the firm's intellectual property and technology practice led by D.C.- and Seoul-based partner Song Jung, which has done considerable work for Korean tech giant LG Corp., among others. The addition of McKenna Long "adds to [Dentons'] capacities in D.C. and Los Angeles and San Francisco,” said firm management consultant Eric Seeger, a principal at legal consultant firm Altman Weil Inc. "They already had Chicago, and it gives them a large Atlanta office." For the McKenna Long partners now considering the deal, joining Dentons would immediately vault them from an increasingly squeezed U.S. middle tier into a global network with a slew of multinational clients, but one that is likely still experiencing growing pains from repeated cross-border mergers, experts say.

TRANSNATIONAL LAW PRACTICE Richard L. Abelt T RANSNATIONAL law practice has grown dramatically in recent years, but scholarship has not kept pace. This Article fills the void in three different, yet related, ways. The first section seeks to explain the patterns of transnational law practice that have emerged in recent decades. The second describes the constraints on transnational practice, especially those imposed by national and supranational regulation. I conclude with proposals about how lawyers, professional organizations, and governments should regulate transnational law practice. Since there is no comprehensive account of the growth of transnational law practice, I have appended one, drawn from a wide variety of sources, including Martindale-Hubbell, the International Financial Law Review, and Business Lawyer,' as well as a dozen interviews with lawyers in t Professor, U.C.L.A.
