Akerman chairman talks of expanding in Calif., succeeding in N.Y., failed and future merger plans

Andrew Smulian's first year as chairman of Akerman Senterfitt hasn't been an easy one. The firm lost one of its most popular and successful partners, Steve Chaykin, a leader in its white-collar practice, to a freak hiking accident in Colorado. Then, after months of intense negotiations with Philadelphia-based WolfBlock, the merger fell apart at the 11th hour — ostensibly due to conflicts.

Crisis management is a hot area, but is there enough sizzle for Florida-based Akerman Senterfitt to stake out a D.C. practice with two former FEMA directors and thereby get a foothold in the nation's capital? And with lean state budgets, who will pay for a large law firm to help with disaster planning? Daniel Craig, head of Akerman's new practice group, says most states have crawled out of their budget hole, though he admits that most taxpayers don't want to see their money going to lobbying activities.
