Two southern law firms based in Birmingham, Ala., and Nashville, Tenn., announced today they would merge to create a 350-lawyer firm with offices in four "strategic" states.
The merger of Bradley Arant Rose & White with Boult, Cummings, Conners & Berry is expected to be complete by Jan. 1, according to a news release (PDF). The new firm will be named Bradley Arant Boult Cummings and have offices in Alabama, Mississippi, North Carolina, and Tennessee, plus a presence in Washington, D.C.
John B. "Beau" Grenier, who is managing partner of 250-lawyer Bradley Arant Rose & White, will lead the merged firm.
“This merger brings together two strongly established firms that already share the same core values and similar cultures," said Jay Hardcastle, managing partner of Boult, Cummings, Conner & Berry. "It will give us a much deeper bench that will benefit our clients immediately because we are expanding our areas of practice, industry knowledge and geographic presence.”
