Locke Liddell & Sapp, based in Houston and Dallas, and Chicago-based Lord, Bissell & Brook have agreed to merge and will form a 700-lawyer firm named Locke Lord Bissell & Liddell. Locke Liddell is the larger firm with 399 lawyers, but Lord Bissell, which has about 300 lawyers, has a wider range of offices. “To my knowledge, this is the first time a large Texas firm merges with a law firm from outside Texas with offices outside the United States,” says Jerry Clements, managing partner of Locke Liddell.
