Global giant Norton Rose Fulbright and Manhattan-based Chadbourne & Parke finalized their merger Friday, ending Chadbourne's 115-year run as an independent firm.

The combined firm, which will shed the Chadbourne name and operate internationally as Norton Rose Fulbright, has about 4,000 lawyers in 59 offices and 33 countries, generating up to $2 billion in annual revenues.

The combined firm has more than 1,000 lawyers in the U.S., the firms said when they announced their merger plans in February. With about 300 lawyers in New York alone, post-merger Norton Rose Fulbright will rank among Manhattan's 25 largest law offices, and it will also have more than 130 lawyers in Washington, D.C.
