Baker, Donelson, Bearman, Caldwell & Berkowitz, PC has merged with the Houston law firm of Spain Chambers, marking Baker Donelson's entry into Texas with a major step in the Firm's continuing strategic growth.

The merger of Spain Chambers into Baker Donelson brings the Firm's total number of attorneys and advisors to nearly 620 across 17 offices in six states and Washington, D.C. The firm will maintain the name of Baker, Donelson, Bearman, Caldwell & Berkowitz, PC.

"For both Baker Donelson and Spain Chambers, the driving force behind this merger is our commitment to serving our clients," said Ben C. Adams, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Baker Donelson. "Expanding into the Texas market enhances Baker Donelson's ability to serve the needs of existing clients who have substantial interests in Houston and throughout Texas. And with our already established presence in Louisiana, Texas was a logical market for growth, given its economic vitality, geographic proximity and economic connection with Louisiana. The timing and decision to move into Texas now just made sense for us, and with their strong reputation and solid experience, Spain Chambers is a great fit for our clients' needs."
