The firm has been in Sydney for five years. Its 19 offices span the US, Canada, Europe and Asia. No reason has been given for the closure but Ken Cutler, managing partner, is quoted in Legal Week as saying: 'The firm is committed to the Asia-Pacific region and to serving our clients throughout that region and the world efficiently and effectively. Relocating John Chrisman and his sophisticated M&A and capital markets practice [from Sydney] to Hong Kong will strengthen the platform and enable us to better serve our clients in the region.'
