Chinese Unions Gain Strength from Government Directives and Proposed Law
Shanghai-based partner Meg Utterback is quoted in this article on Labor and Employment issues in China.

. . . For foreign firms, the changes could be costly, says Meg Utterback, a partner in Thelen Reid & Priest in Shanghai, especially for companies that previously managed human resources issues from overseas.

"Having labor unions involved means employers will need a human resources team here on the ground," Utterback says. "It's not so much that any one provision is the death knell for foreign business, but the cumulative effect is fairly significant." . . .

The Power of a Logo
Newly merged firms like Thelen Reid Brown Raysman & Steiner, Cooley Godward Kronish, and DLA Piper, and the pending Dewey Orrick combination, can—with the use of expensive consultants—spend millions of dollars on branding and marketing their new firms. . . .

. . .Following the merger of Thelen Reid & Priest and Brown Raysman Millstein Felder & Steiner last week, the new marketing team decided to do away with Brown's shiny brown polyhedron O—suggestive of a globe and intended to represent "a world of experience."

Thelen Reid Brown Raysman & Steiner's new letterhead, which will be in use on Dec. 1, is blue with an accentuated tan ampersand, but no ornate O.

Thelen Chief Marketing Officer Craig Soderstrom said it's part of a larger marketing effort aimed at minimizing confusion over the new firm's identity following the merger.

"The whole idea of creating a logo or a graphic takes a long time and can be quite controversial," he said.

A logo may eventually come, as may the shortening the firm's lengthy name—a popular marketing tactic aimed at making firm names easily memorable.

Still, the new lettering was not without consideration for the firm's new identity.

"There was the thought that Thelen Reid brings the old economy and that Brown Raysman brings the new economy," Soderstrom said. "What we tried to do was to create an identity that has a traditional look but a modern spin to it as well.
