IP Merger in RSA

Afro Leo normally tries avoid posts about law firms (unless the information is truly scandalous) but makes an exception because the news involves two very long standing IP firms/practises based in South Africa. For more information click here.

When I practised for a large firm in London we used Adams & Adams. Each Christmas we received a lovely box of South African oranges. They no longer do this.

Isn't it odd how both firms announce that they will be better off after the merger? It reminds me of the joke about Van der Merwe emigrating to Australia, and improving the average IQ of both nations;-)

Guy, interesting. The partners at the firm I orginally worked for in London had a similar comment about John & Kernick, who had also stopped sending oranges. Instead they sent me!
