Evans & Petree, Bogatin Law Firm to merge
Law Firm News
The Bogatin Law Firm PLC, one of Memphis' oldest law firms, will dissolve on Friday.
10 Bogatin attorneys will be absorbed by law firm Evans & Petree PC, which employs 29 attorneys, in a merger that will create one of the top five Memphis-based law firms. A source familiar with the merger said the name Evans Petree Bogatin has been proposed to serve as the combined firm's moniker.
According to another source familiar with the deal, several Bogatin attorneys will not join the combined law firm, including: Stephen Biller, Stephen Brown, Susan Callison, Charles Cottam, Charles Key, Jack Magids and Robert Wilson.
Irvin Bogatin, founder of The Bogatin Law Firm, died last month.
Managing partners of Evans & Petree and Bogatin declined to comment.
In April, Memphis Business Journal reported on the planned dissolution of Bogatin and its merger with Evans & Petree. In October 2007, MBJ first reported on early merger talks between the two firms, which called for 20 Bogatin attorneys to be absorbed by Evans & Petree.
Located at 1000 Ridgeway Loop, Evans & Petree will now add Bogatin's strong litigation practice, which will compliment Evans & Petree's focus on transactional law, estate planning and corporate law, MBJ has reported. Both Bogatin and Evans & Petree practice in health care and tax law.
