Canadian Firm Opens New Office in Second Life

According to today’s Vancouver Sun [1] and the Globe and Mail [2] Davis & Co has just opened its latest office:

In a cobbled street in Zurich across from a newsstand and conveniently located near a rapid transit line, although most visitors would likely teleport in rather than take transit.

Up the slate-looking steps, the door opens onto a large lobby with a large round reception desk and the requisite office ferns. A notecard on the desk welcomes the visitor: “Davis LLP is an international full-service law firm”.

The lawyers involved include Dani Lemon [3], colleagues Sarah Dale-Harris, known as BarristerSolicitor Underwood online; Pablo Guzman, or PabloGuzman Little; Chris Bennett, known as IPand Teichmann, David Spratley, known as DaveS Blackadder and Chris Metcalfe, whose avatar is dubbed IP Maximus.

The opening had been rumoured in a Lawyer’s Weekly article [4]

Here are some images of what the visitors encounter.
