CORPORATE AND litigation remain the two biggest practices at Mayer Brown Rowe & Maw, accounting for 60 per cent of London turnover. Among the firm’s high-profile instructions were advising Persimmon on its recommended offer for UK housebuilder Westbury and acting for the Football Association on its employment tribunal with ex-secretary Faria Alam.
The firm also underwent an aggressive recruitment campaign to take on four new partners in the last financial year.
Since 2005 the UK and US operations of the firm have had one profit pool, although the firm remains
a combination of two limited-liability partnerships (LLP), one in Illinois and the other in England.
The change to the profit pool, a legacy of the 2002 merger between Rowe & Maw and Mayer Brown &
Platt, also saw the UK arm move away from a modified lockstep to a merit-based system of partner
compensation.
