The merger means the new company will have offices in London, Guildford, Bristol, Birmingham, Nottingham, Leeds and Manchester. "Many of our clients are developing a countrywide presence either through setting up regional offices or by joining national networks, and we felt it was important to follow suit," says managing director Timothy Bates.
