History

Norton Rose was founded in London in 1794. In 1998 the firm admitted its first two US-qualified partners. Norton Rose has grown its international practice, opening offices through organic growth or acquisitions, for example in Germany, The Netherlands, Greece, Italy, China, Dubai, and Australia. In 2007 Norton Rose converted to a limited liability partnership structure.

In January 2010, Deacons Australia joined Norton Rose Group and became Norton Rose Australia.

Following successful votes by the respective partnerships in November 2010, Canadian law firm Ogilvy Renault and South African law firm Deneys Reitz Inc joined the Group. The combination took effect on 1 June 2011.

On October 4, 2011, Norton Rose announced that its Canadian arm, Norton Rose OR LLP will merge with Macleod Dixon on January 1, 2012. Macleod Dixon, with offices in Calgary, Toronto, Moscow, Colombia, Venezuela and Kazakhstan will increase the size of the Norton Rose Group to approximately 2900 lawyers, with 43 different offices worldwide.
