Morgan Lewis & Bockius has converted its London and Paris offices to a UK limited liability partnership (LLP), just days after the acquisition of more than 700 lawyers from Bingham McCutchen.
The decision to convert was made at the beginning of the year prior to the Bingham deal, and to give the City outpost greater liability protection in the wake of the office's expansion.
Morgan Lewis chair Jami McKeon, Philadelphia-based practice managing partner Steven Wall and New York managing partner of operations David Pollak, all of whom sit on Morgan Lewis' board in the US, have been registered as foreign solicitors with the SRA, and added to the UK LLP with 22 other partners.
