Watson Burton LLP is delighted to announce that an internationally renowned commercial and technology practice, Trevor Robinson & Co, has merged with us from the 1st of May. All the Trevor Robinson lawyers have joined the merged firm.

Trevor Robinson & Co acts for substantial technology clients and other international businesses such as SAP, Panasonic, Petrobras, the world's sixth largest oil company, Cryolife Inc and Northern Trust Company. World-leading business software company SAP has been a client for more than 12 years and Petrobras for over 25 years.

Our strategy for growth has seen the firm’s national coverage strengthen recently through its offices in Newcastle, Leeds and London. The merger with Trevor Robinson & Co takes the firm to the next stage of development.

We believe our clients will benefit from the specialist expertise Trevor Robinson and Co is bringing to the firm, and from its client-centred approach which mirrors that of Watson Burton.

Partner Ann Lewin will head Watson Burton’s national specialist technology group, building on its impressive track record that includes involvement in software development, supply and implementation, software streaming, outsourcing and the digital television arena.
