The Importance of a National Law Firm Network
by Charles Carr, Carr Allison Pugh Howard Oliver & Sisson, Mobile, AL
A southern business publication recently called me in connection with an article that he was writing about the merger of law firms in the south. He said that his research had led him to the conclusion that our firm was a candidate for a merger with a large law firm looking to beef up its litigation practice. He had noticed that we were a 60 lawyer firm heavily involved in commercial, self-insured and insurance litigation. He said that other firms similar to ours had been absorbed by mega-firms in other states. I told him that our involvement with USLAW Network had led us to conclude that we would not be considering a merger at all.
