A Message From the Editor

Two more high-profile technology partners have left Norton Rose Fulbright for Allen & Overy, depleting its data privacy and cybersecurity practice. Also, Google has been hit with a lawsuit alleging it continued to direct Google Maps users through dangerous routes in South Africa despite warnings. And The Global Lawyer asks whether elite law firms can really be the "differentiators" and "disruptors" they claim to be.
