A busload of lawyers wearing matching orange ties and scarves filed into Wilson Elser Moskowitz Edelman & Dicker’s midtown office last week. The group, hailing from about two dozen mainland Chinese firms, had already visited Jones Day, Hogan Lovells and Sidley Austin as part of a tour by an upstart Chinese law school catering to practicing lawyers. Davis Polk & Wardwell was next on the agenda.

Before delving into the brass tacks of partnership law, capital and compensation issues, Quaranta noted similarities between 38-year-old Wilson Elser and Chinese firms.
