The executive committees of both firms already have approved the merger and the firms have begun tackling key administrative tasks, such as conflict-of-interest checks and combining practice groups.

A vote by partners at Wolf Block and Ackerman Senterfitt is expected within the next few weeks.

Sources familiar with the negotiations said the combined firm would be called Ackerman Wolf Block and would be headed by managing partners from both firms.
