London firm Vizard Oldham has been split into two - litigation and commercial following a decision by the litigation group to merge with Weightmans.
Out of Vizard's 23 partners, 16 are leaving to join Weightmans and set up the North west firm's first London presence. The enlarged firm will be called Weightmans Vizard and is seeking to exploit opportunities in professional indemnity and public sector work. The remaining seven Vizards commercial partners will continue to operate as Vizard Oldham.
