It may not be the name most associated with sole adviser mandates in the legal industry but Norton Rose Fulbright (NRF) has still scored a notable win. The global law firm has confirmed this week that it has secured a position as global legal counsel to engineering company IMI following an overhaul of its use of external counsel.
The Birmingham-based IMI previously had over 70 law firms engaged on a variety of issues. NRF will now take the lion’s share of work across the board including commercial contracts; competition; compliance; employment; export controls/sanctions; product liability and environmental; intellectual property; litigation and real estate.
