The St. Louis firm, which merged with the former Powell Goldstein, marked its third year in Atlanta last year. Although head count was down, financials were up. “We were fortunate to work on a broad array of transactional and litigation matters during 2011, notwithstanding the uncertain economic climate,” said Atlanta managing partner Thomas R. McNeill. “As uncertainty continues into 2012, we see continued pickup in transactional activity fueled by pressures on the private equity market and the possibility of meaningful tax law changes.” He added that he expects significant legal work arise from the continuing complexities of the residential mortgage industry and commercial finance restructuring as well as international matters.
