FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
New Name to Reflect a Clear and Strong Brand in the Legal Marketplace
SAN FRANCISCO and NEW YORK -- In a move to present a clear and strong brand in the legal marketplace, Thelen LLP, an international Am Law 100 law firm, announced today that it is officially shortening the firm name.
The name change will be effective September 9 and will better reflect the firm's 80-year history as one of the world's premier law firms. A single corporate identity also has the added benefit of consistent branding in the domestic and global markets in which Thelen operates.
The change of the legal name follows the firm's decision last year to implement a new "Thelen" logo for purposes of branding and marketing.
Thelen LLP will be committed to continuing to provide the expert legal services that clients have come to rely on in such core practices as Construction, Energy, China, Complex Litigation, Finance and Intellectual Property. Thelen is one of the country's leading law firms with clients that include many of the world's largest and most recognized companies.
