Headline

Simmons and Mayer Brown merger talks: round two

Comment

Mayer Browns London office, and frankly most of its U.S operation, is in a dire state. I do not believe for one moment that an innovative and well respect firm, (Simmons not MB) would jeapordize such a cohesive entity merely to add bulk to its business model, this proposed merger, if true, does not make any economic sense. Simmons would loose control over its business and inherit a disunified group of offices with many deep rooted issues that more commonly go by the name Mayer Brown. MB would infect Simmons from within and soon find themselves losing longstanding clients and lawyers.
