DLA targets Asia Pacific growth via merger with Aussie best friend

DLA is a one-trick pony with the tired and repetitive 80's mantra that biggest is always best. This 'strategy' avoids the need to consider the unthinkable - that perhaps the optimal model for international commercial law practices in the coming decade will greatly differ from that of the past 30 years. DLA's last major expansion was into the Middle East. It entered in a grand way, with great expense, only to find later that the party was just about to end. If it is true that DLA has the knack of knowing when to arrive in a market that is primed for collapse then we can expect a recession Down Under within the next 24 months.
