These lists may be described more accurately as “back to the future” than as the “new normal.” Close to 10% of the Am Law 200 comprise an elite group of firms with a significant presence in New York City, nearly all of them predominantly corporate. The next 25% or so are highly successful full-service corporate firms anxious about sustaining and enhancing their ability to compete for top clients, work, and talent. The balance are harder to pigeonhole into one category or another. One could have said the same things about the same lists a quarter-century ago. Perhaps this is unsurprising; the 2015 Am Law 200 lists reflect the return to a healthy U.S economy dominated by healthy large-cap companies and financial institutions. Digging under the numbers, though, little remains the same. Now the top 200 nearly always compete for work on every matter, and costs and fee arrangements are nearly always material drivers of client hiring decisions. Client work commonly spans the globe. What was once a seller’s market for first-year associates has been disrupted and, according to some pundits, is • ZGuide • evaporating.

  • ?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.

  • Law Firm Mergers: a Tasty Concoction?
    Law firm mergers: a tasty concoction? Introduction The much heralded impact of deregulation has been making waves in the legal industry for a couple of years now, with the introduction of Alternative Business Structures creating new competition in the industry and causing existing law firms to take a step back and examine their next strategic move in light of these market changes. Amidst all this change, few law firms have considered how their brands are affected and can be utilised to help them develop a competitive edge in this new legal landscape. Intangible Business brought this issue to the industry’s attention back in September 2012, when it issued a report comparing law firm brands to chocolate bar brands. The light-hearted campaign encouraged law firms and legal commentators to suggest which law firm brands best resembled which chocolate brands. It highlighted the important message that in this brave new world, law firms needed to wise up to the value and potential their brands could hold if they were to compete with heavyweight consumer brands entering the market for the first time. Since then, a flurry of law firm mergers have been announced as the legal market consolidates in response to the changes. The process of bringing two or more firms’ brands together to create one enticing brand proposition is similar to how mixologists capitalise on individual spirits and mixers to create cocktails. Intangible Business has used this concept to invite the legal industry to compare the big law firm mergers to cocktails to highlight the brand management issues at stake when law firms enter into merger negotiations.
