Rumors that many Wolf Block attorneys may have carved out a deal to join Cozen O’Connor before the dissolution vote have caused ire among some Wolf Block attorneys and caused many in the community to describe the deal as the merger the two firms couldn’t get done in previous attempts.
Leadership at both firms said there was never a deal in place prior to the vote, and sources have said there was in fact a commitment on behalf of Cozen O’Connor not to recruit from Wolf Block prior to any dissolution vote.
