O2 is, as the company states, ''a leading provider of mobile and broadband services to consumers and businesses in the UK. Their business also extends across the U.K., Ireland, across the English Channel into Germany, the Czech Republic, and Slovakia. The company, formed in 2001, has added Clifford Chance, Herbert Smith, and Gleiss Lutz to its new European legal panel. They plan to officially eliminate the role of a European General Counsel in January of 2008, when current general counsel, Justine Campbell, who played a key role in this step, will step down from her position. The firms in the new panel have been appointed for a period of two years, as a trial run. The goal is to ''create synergies on a larger scale, rather than just using local firms in each country,'' says Campbell.
