Partners from Fraser Milner Casgrain, Salans, and SNR Denton voted Nov. 28 to approve a three-way merger that will create a 2,500-lawyer firm boasting one of the world’s largest energy practices. SNR Denton issued a press release announcing the decision by the partnerships of all three firms to approve the union, which will go live in the first quarter of 2013.
The combined firm, touted by its leaders as a new “polycentric” global brand, will have offices throughout Asia, Canada, Europe, the Middle East, and the United States. It will be known as “Dentons” (NYLJ, Nov. 9).
