A Message From the Editor Good Morning. As KPMG's legal arm is awaiting word on whether it will be able to operate as an ALSP in the U.S. state of Arizona, reporter Christopher Niesche talks to KPMG's former head of global legal services about why it is pushing to enter the competitive U.S. market and what it hopes to accomplish there. Also, the fight for top partner talent in the U.S. is moving to a new level. And The Global Lawyer writes about "The New M&A Kings" and what they have in common. – Lisa Shuchman, Executive Editor |
