Morgan Lewis & Bockius has hired a further 525 lawyers, legal professionals and staff from Bingham McCutchen, ten days after voting to admit 226 partners from the Boston-headquartered firm, which is now set to dissolve.

The hires make Morgan Lewis one of the largest law firms in the US by headcount, a move which the firm said gives it “a dominant presence along the East and West coasts of the United States”.
