I am writing both personally and on behalf of Hogan Lovells to say how sorry I am to hear that Rob Legh has died.  He was a great practitioner and a lovely man.   We worked on matters for SABMiller together a long time ago and, indeed, it was John Davidson, former GC of SABMiller, who told me the terrible news.

Rob and I exchanged emails only a few months ago on the death of Andrew Williamson, who had been a partner in each of our firms.

I send condolences from all of us at Hogan Lovells who knew Rob and respected him as both a lawyer and a leader of your firm.  I’d be grateful if you would also express our sorrow to his family.
