WHAT WE’RE WATCHING

BIGGER IN TEXAS – Shearman & Sterling is bringing aboard a Jones Day M&A group with at least three partners to launch a Dallas office. As Brenda Sapino Jeffreys reports, Shearman’s advance into Texas, where it opened offices in Houston and Austin in 2018, is another example of intense interest among Big Law firms in the state’s legal market. Jones Day was among the first non-Texas firms to establish a foothold in the state in the 1980s.
