In London legal circles, planning trans-Atlantic strategy is no longer the preserve of Magic Circle management. As midmarket deals become more international, smaller firms are feeling the pressure to show their U.S.reach, too. Just ask SJ Berwin, an upwardly mobile member of London’s midmarket, which is busy trying to solidify its working relationships with several American firms.

“We’re seeking to develop a number of closer relationships, so that we get to the position where we’re able to demonstrate to our client base that we’re capable of delivering on a transatlantic basis,” SJ Berwin senior partner Jonathan Blake comments. He adds that the firm is seeing more and more midmarket deals with a U.S. angle.
