A high-profile law firm with an office in Charlotte has merged with a leading financial services law firm, partners announced Monday.
Atlanta-based Kilpatrick Stockton, which has 500 attorneys in nine offices worldwide, combined with the smaller Washington, D.C., firm Muldoon Murphy & Aguggia.
The merger became effective last week, and the new firm will be known as Kilpatrick Stockton.
The combination brings together some of the nation's leading attorneys representing financial institutions and businesses in various industries, partners said.
