Litigation

Andersen Tax has been spreading its network of tax and legal services firms across the world after settling a legal dispute last year with a French firm that had laid claim to the Arthur Andersen name.

The Big Four accounting firms are moving more into the legal services market, competing with law firms on their traditional turf, according to a new report.

One contender for the defunct Big Five firm’s moniker and legacy accuses its rival of “ego, arrogance, lies and greed.”

The Texas firm is adding a consultancy that specializes in performing economic analyses for commercial legal disputes and litigation support.
