AmsterdamFive members of Denton Wilde Sapte’s defunct European alliance, Denton International (DI), are to create a new network by the summer, it has been confirmed.

Following Dentons’ announced withdrawal from the DI group in March, the remaining firms, headed by Germany’s Heuking Kuhn Luer Wojtek, will build a new branded entity without an Anglo-Saxon member. Heuking partner Diter Bohnert told Legal Week the new alliance would also seek to find allies in Italy, France, The Netherlands and Switzerland.
