DWF acquires ailing Cobbetts in pre-pack deal

Comment

DWF see Cobbetts books as part of earlier merger discussions / due diligence, DWF decide they can get a better deal by buying it out of the admin. Hill Dickinson and Halliwells a similar story. Obviously the new model for the acquisition of highly geared law firms. I am pleased for the employees of Cobbetts that they have been offered a lifeline, albeit it may be a temporary one. But let's not pretend that DWF are a knight in shining armour in all of this.
