Seven months after teaming his agency with Italia/Gal to form Asher/Gal & Partners, Hal Asher is stepping down from his post as chairman. Concurrent with the move, effective April 1, the agency is returning to the office space occupied by Italia/Gal prior to the merger.

Plans call for the shop to keep the Asher/Gal name, said president and CEO Ken Gal, who said the departure of the 65-year-old Asher was amicable. Gal also maintained that the seven-month marriage leaves him with an agency that is better positioned than either agency had been prior to the union.
