Russell Jones & Walker acquired by listed Aussie firm Slater & Gordon

First, thank God it's finally started. After waiting years for ABSs to kick-off, we're finally here at last. Second, I'm sure there will be plenty of trolls commenting on this (probably ones who are a little nervous and a little jealous too), but the deal is a real starting gun for everyone else in this segment of the market. This is historic stuff. This will certainly have a huge impact over the next five years on a whole roster of UK law firms that earned a big crust from PI/Clin Neg - i.e. just about every firm below the top 30. This may not be a Big Bang moment for the top City firms, but for everyone else it certainly is.
