Denton Wilde Sapte last week saw the resignation of an 11-partner team from its TMT practice – taking the number of partners to quit the beleaguered City firm this year to more than 25.

The partners are set to join DLA with a substantial team of junior lawyers. As reported last week, Dentons IP partner Simon Levine had been leading the DLA talks, which come amid reports of discord with Dentons’ management.
