Hogan Lovells’ South African headcount is being slashed as its merger partner splits from the firm following a troubled six-year tie-up.
The firm confirmed today (1 August) that it is undergoing a ‘restructuring’ of its South African practice that will see 71 of its lawyers set up an independent law firm, while Hogan Lovells will re-launch a 20-lawyer office in the country under its UK LLP.
