The firm plans to keep the name Norton Rose Fulbright. They will have $2 billion in revenue, placing them as the No. 6 top grossing firm in the U.S. The firm will be a full-service law firm with emphasis on energy and infrastructure, litigation, regulatory, bankruptcy and restructuring, and finance work.

Norton Rose global chief executive Peter Martyr said, “Joining forces with our new colleagues, we can offer our clients significant new capabilities in New York and Washington D.C.” Norton Rose has around 3,400 lawyers in Africa, Asia, Europe, India, Latin America, and New America.
