Two senior partners in Sidley Austin’s restructuring practice are joining Faegre Drinker Biddle & Reath on either side of the Atlantic, as the firm zeroes in on in-demand bankruptcy work after completing its merger of equals in February.

James Conlan is a former chairman and global leader of Sidley’s restructuring practice, which he led from the firm’s Chicago office. At Faegre Drinker, he’ll work across the firm’s U.S. offices, including New York, Philadelphia and Chicago. Patrick Corr, who is joining Faegre Drinker in London, was the head of Sidley’s European restructuring and insolvency practice until making the move.
