RALEIGH, N.C. -

A North Carolina law firm named for two former governors is merging with a South Carolina firm that wants a location in North Carolina's capital city.

The News & Observer of Raleigh reported Monday that officials said Sanford Holshouser will merge with the Columbia, S.C., firm Nexsen Pruet. The North Carolina firm was started in 1965 by the late Terry Sanford and was joined by former Gov. James E. Holshouser Jr. in 1997.

Nexsen Pruet chairman Leighton Lord III said the firm has offices in Greensboro and Charlotte and had been looking for a firm to join in Raleigh. Lord said his firm had worked with Sanford
Holshouser when clients needed experienced North Carolina lawyers.

Lord said he wants to move the firm from Cary back to Raleigh.
