The senior partners of Allen & Overy and Shearman & Sterling, Wim Dejonghe and Adam Hakki respectively, are conducting a series of roadshows at each other’s firms. The roadshows, which are question and answer sessions, come as part of a planned merger between the two firms.
This merger is set to be decided upon by partner vote in October. Notably, the two firms are expected to adopt a joint compensation system that has no upper limit on remuneration.
