History
The origins of Nabarro go back to just after the Second World War. By 1958, the principals, Leslie Nathanson, Felix Nabarro and his brother Alan Nabarro, had merged their firms to form an eight partner, sixty employee firm advising on property, litigation, company commercial and family law matters under the name Nabarro Nathanson.
In 1990, Nabarro Nathanson acquired the legal team of the British Coal Corporation, which comprised 125 lawyers.{{cite news|url=http://www.thelawyer.com/british-coal/94202.article|title=British Coal|access-date=24 January 2011|publisher=The Lawyer| date=13 September 1994}}{{cite news|url=http://www.thelawyer.com/under-pressure/82398.article|title=Under pressure...|access-date=24 January 2011|publisher=The Lawyer| date=6 October 1997}} In the same year the firm established an alliance with the U.S.-based law firm Weil, Gotshal & Manges, which was subsequently dissolved in 1995.{{cite news|url=http://www.thelawyer.com/weil-gotshal-limbers-up-for-all-out-assault-on-city-firms/82642.article|title=Weil Gotshal limbers up for all-out assault on City firms|access-date=24 January 2011|publisher=The Lawyer| date=6 November 1996}}
Various mergers and office moves in the West End of London culminated in the firm's relocation in November 1999 to Holborn in central London.
In February 2007, the firm changed its name from Nabarro Nathanson to Nabarro and launched its new brand with an associated strapline 'Clarity Matters'.{{cite news|url=http://www.thelawyer.com/nabarro/129445.article|title=Nabarro|access-date=24 January 2011|publisher=The Lawyer| date=15 October 2007}} In January 2008, Nabarro partners voted in favour of the firm converting to a limited liability partnership, with the change occurring in March of that year.{{cite news|url=http://www.legalweek.com/legal-week/news/1178370/nabarro-join-llp-ranks-partners-vote-convert-months|title=Nabarro to join LLP ranks after partners vote to convert within next six months|access-date=24 January 2011|publisher=Legal Week| date=31 Jan 2008}}
In October 2014, Nabarro moved to new offices in London Wall.{{Cite web|title=International law firm CMS {{!}} United Kingdom|url=https://cms.law/en/gbr/?rfb=en%7Cgbr|access-date=2021-04-02|website=cms.law|language=en}}
