Firm announces expansion via merger with Ronaldsons
City firm Druces has announced its strategic merger with Ronaldsons, an independent London-based firm specialising in corporate, mining, litigation and commercial property.
As a result of the merger, Druces will expand its team with the addition of four senior lawyers, one associate and a number of support staff. These new arrivals include corporate and capital markets partners Stephen Ronaldson and Dominic Traynor, commercial litigation partner Neil Hayter, and property consultant Roger France-Hayhurst.
Roy Campbell, senior partner at Druces, commented: ‘It’s an exciting time for Druces. We have just celebrated our 250th anniversary and are going from strength to strength—we’re on track to announce a fourth year of double digit financial growth. This merger with the well respected Ronaldsons significantly strengthens our Capital Markets practice in particular—a key focus for us. Ronaldsons is a natural fit for us with a similar culture and values and shared practices and clients. We look forward to welcoming them to the firm.’
Senior partner at Ronaldsons Stephen Ronaldson added: ‘We are delighted to merge with Druces. This will complement our existing strengths and enable clients to benefit from Druces broader competencies and skill sets. I can only see a positive outcome for our clients.’
