Top 30 LB100 firm Irwin Mitchell has lost its place on energy giant National Grid’s legal panel, following a review by UK general counsel and company secretary Karen Clayton.
The 700-lawyer firm was appointed for debt recovery services on the FTSE 100 energy giant’s panel in 2011, at a time when it cut its roster of firms by 25% to 16. However, as first reported by RollonFriday yesterday (17 March), Irwin Mitchell was not re-appointed in a recent review, and Legal Business was today informed by National Grid that the firm has been replaced by Shakespeares.
