Lovells will axe lockstep to push through Hogan tie-up

Seriously, doesn't anyone ever learn? 10 years ago, CC and Rogers & Wells merged with great fanfare. Look at the results 10 years out: with two exceptions, every single rainmaking partner in the Americas has left; the Americas have shrunk by over 400 lawyers from the immediate post-merger period, CC - NY is a non-entity in all but primarily European deals (despite what the formerly fat (now just fatuous) Brian Hoffman told The Lawyer), CC cannot even allege full service capabilities without a litigation practice, and the economic contribution of the US to the firm is still non-existent. Proceed with caution, boys and girls. Misery lies ahead.
