The beginning of May marked the 10th anniversary of the merger that created CMS Cameron McKenna; or to be more accurate, Cameron McKenna – the CMS part came two years later, with the founding of the CMS alliance. May 1997 was also the month that the Labour Government came to power. This end of an era has encouraged politicians and commentators to reflect over the past 10 years and there is feverish speculation about what a Gordon Brown administration will achieve.
Camerons’ own 10-year milestone is also a good time to reflect on what has been achieved company-wide. Or more broadly: what has the profession as a whole had to tackle during this past decade? And what are the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead?
