Mapped: What Would the Troutman Pepper & Locke Lord Merger Look Like?
Last week, Troutman Pepper and Locke Lord confirmed they had opened merger negotiations.
If successful, the combination would create a law firm of around 1,600 lawyers and revenue of more than $1.5 billion. The merged firm would jump into the top 30 of the AM Law 100 (currently Troutman Pepper is 45th & Locke Lord is 96th).
This made us wonder, what would the merged firm look like, and which offices & practices would see the most growth?
Troutman Pepper would grow their Partnership in a few key cities and gain a foothold in Texas for the first time
Both firms have similar structures so would be boosting several shared practice areas
