Former Clydes COO Jabbari joins Pannone to build consumer brand Connect2Law

It is in a sense irrelevant what partners think about the wisdom of a merger. Partners rarely see beyond their own nose and are more interested in whether the sandwiches in the meeting rooms are satisfactory. Can you imagine a corporate board having to go to each individual shareholder of whatever size and get their approval for a merger. As an external commentator I see the proof of the pudding in the eating: the merged firm is a powerhouse that has left the competition trailing. Macfarlane seems to prefer a future that would have seen BLG dwindle to the point of complete irrelevance.
