Votes on Patton-Squire Merger Could Come Next Week

Votes on a proposed law firm merger between Patton Boggs LLP and the larger firm Squire Sanders could come as early as next week, according to three people familiar with the matter.

If approved by partners at both firms, the merger would create a roughly 1,700-lawyer firm with international reach and a substantial presence in Washington, D.C., where Patton Boggs has long been a go-to firm for government and lobbying work. It would also relieve financial pressures on the smaller firm, which has roughly 380 lawyers and whose revenue has slid in recent years amid a tough legal market.
