Dentons is pleased to announce that leading corporate insurance partner Martin Mankabady has joined the firm in London. His arrival strengthens the UK corporate practice; and he will help to develop a global insurance team, working with US and Canadian colleagues in order to build on their strong market position.

As London is one of the world's most important insurance centres Martin's arrival represents an opportunity to develop a full-service global insurance practice by building on our market-leading position in both the US and Canada. I am very pleased to welcome him to the firm."
