The merger of Patton Boggs LLP and Squire Sanders to create Squire Patton Boggs spawns a new legal superstore. It also creates a new power source of campaign contributions and lobbying. Since 1989, the two component firms have combined for total contributions of more than $13 million to federal candidates, party committees, leadership PACs and outside money groups. Just over two-thirds of those contributions went to Democratic candidates and committees. Patton Boggs LLP accounted for the majority of that cash.
