This was particularly true when the law firms of Edwards Angell Palmer & Dodge LLP and Wildman Harrold Allen & Dixon LLP merged in 2011 ' forming a global and geographically diverse AmLaw 100 law firm with 14 offices in the U.S., Europe and Asia. Edwards Wildman's marketing efforts, specifically our online and digital Web presence, were quickly devoted to achieving a cohesive 'one voice, one brand, one solution' approach, as we set out to redesign our website and digital persona.
