What They're Saying About BigLaw Merger Rumor Across the Pond

What They're Saying About BigLaw Merger Rumor Across the Pond
When you drill down a bit into the data, the much talked about Lovells/Hogan merger has some interesting issues. For example, there is a rather significant differential in PEP between the two firms, with Lovells being on the short side, which raises a question about how this will play out. Most would look at this development as positive in this economic climate, because merger activity of any consequence has been decidedly sparse of late. If this comes to pass, it will not be an inconsequential merger by any measure.
