Boies, Schiller & Flexner, a 258-lawyer national firm founded in 1997, is poised to open an outpost in London. It will be the Am Law 100 firm’s first office outside the United States.
News of the office opening was first reported late last week by U.K. publication Legal Week, which noted that Armonk, N.Y.-based Boies Schiller had approached multiple London litigators about joining the firm’s new office sometime this summer. A spokeswoman for Boies Schiller confirmed that the firm plans to establish a presence in the London market with an office in the "near-term."
