Firm Focus: Norton Rose

As a fervently sector-driven firm, Norton Rose could be forgiven for having more than its fair share of collective nightmares in light of recent events.

Insurance, financial services and transport, among the best performing industry groups within the firm, are likely to be those most affected by the recent New York atrocities.

Add to that the current state of the telecoms market – another Norton Rose strong suit – and the recent messy merger this year with parts of national German firm Gaedertz, and one might expect more than a little anxiety to have taken hold at Kempson House.
