After years of looking for what it considered the right way to enter the New York market, Ballard Spahr is set to officially launch in the city Monday with the acquisition of noted white-collar and securities litigation boutique Stillman & Friedman.

Ballard Spahr Chairman Mark Stewart said the firm was advised it was easier to combine the LLP and PC through creating a separate legal entity.
