Bristol law firm TLT to merge with Scottish litigation house Anderson Fyfe

Bristol law firm TLT is set to merge with Scottish litigation house Anderson Fyfe, gaining offices in Glasgow and Edinburgh as well as eight partners and 45 employees. The merged firm is predicted to generate revenues of £48m and will have coverage of all UK legal jurisdictions after the launch of a new office in Belfast. The Belfast office will be led by litigation partner Katharine Kimber who joins the firm from Wilson Nesbitt Solicitors. 
TLT managing partner David Pester said: "Client need dictated this move to us; both firms are very strong in financial services and litigation, and by adding Northern Ireland we can offer clients joined-up services in all three jurisdictions, something they are increasingly coming to expect.

 "Our first aim is to deliver our existing services to a very high level. Over time, we want to increase market share in financial services and litigation, as well as adding some service lines in litigation and taking full advantage of Anderson Fyfe's real estate pedigree."
