Talks are said to be advanced between 1,000-lawyer, San Francisco-based Orrick Herrington & Sutcliffe and New York-based, 700-lawyer practice Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman. A letter of intent is 'expected' to be signed this week, according to 'a source with direct knowledge of the discussions', as cited in the Baltimore Sun.
