Cubitt Consulting lands PR for law firms merger

Cubitt Consulting has been appointed to provide PR for the merger

of law firms Denton Hall and Wilde Sapte.

The strategic communications and media relations brief runs until

February, when the merger is due to be finalised.

Will Hulbert, Denton Hall PR head, and Simon Hopes, head of PR at Wilde

Sapte, will continue their work in the merged operation.

The new company, Denton Wilde Sapte, will number 800 staff, making it

the eighth-largest in the UK by staff and ninth-largest by income. Both

firms’ key sectors include corporate finance and banking.

Cubitt managing partner Simon Brocklebank-Fowler said: ’This supports

our strategy of focusing on beating the premier firms across a limited

range of sectors - financial professional services, new media and

retail.’
