Overview
- The proposed firm, Hogan Lovells Cadwalader, is expected to have about 3,100 lawyers and more than $3.6 billion in revenue, ranking fifth globally by revenue.
- Miguel Zaldivar will remain CEO, while Cadwalader leaders Pat Quinn and Wes Misson will join the international management committee with defined global managing partner roles.
- The firms position the tie-up as combining Hogan Lovells’ global platform with Cadwalader’s Wall Street finance capabilities to strengthen the New York–London corridor.
- In London, the combined practice would count close to 600 lawyers, placing it among the city’s top 10 by size.
- The announcement continues a late‑2025 surge in UK–US law firm combinations, following Ashurst–Perkins Coie and Taylor Wessing–Winston & Strawn.
