Duane Morris LLP and Satterlee Stephens LLP announced today that the partners of both firms have approved the material terms of a merger agreement, and it is expected that the deal will be finalized by the end of the month. The combination would substantially expand Duane Morris’ presence in New York City, effectively growing the firm’s New York practice by 60% to more than 160 lawyers. The additional depth in key practice areas and industry sector know-how, coupled with the broader geographic reach of Satterlee within the combined firm, would enhance the range of services available to clients of both firms. Satterlee Stephens, with its 125-year track record of working on some of the market’s most notable deals and important cases, would complement the service offerings of the New York office of Duane Morris, which celebrated its 25th anniversary last year. The combined firm would operate as Duane Morris LLP.
