The firm’s roots can be traced back to 1789 when the practice which was eventually to become Francis & Co was started in Cambridge by the 24-year-old newly qualified solicitor Christopher Pemberton. The original Mills & Reeve was formed in Norwich in 1880 when Henry Mills and Edmund Reeve came together to undertake the legal work arising out of the development of the tram system in Norwich.〔 Michelle Cookson was admitted to the partnership on the day of the merger of Francis & Co and Mills & Reeve in 1987, becoming the first woman partner in the Cambridge practice.〔 The firm’s former Cambridge office from 1914-86 at 10 Peas Hill is now the Pint Shop, the first new public house to open in Cambridge since 1999.〔(Cambridge News - SLIDESHOW: Pint Shop becomes the first new pub this millenium to open in Cambridge city centre )〕 Mills & Reeve’s current Cambridge office is Botanic House, which was the winner of the 2013 BCO Midlands and East Anglia Best Commercial Workplace Award.〔(2013 BCO Midlands and East Anglia Award Winner (Commercial workplace category) )〕 In 2013, Mills & Reeve acquired the Manchester-based law firm George Davies.〔 In September 2014 Mills & Reeve formed an exclusive "best friends" alliance with the French law firm Fidal. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mills & Reeve LLP」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
