Four lawyers, citing client conflict, left Gardere Wynne Sewell for Polsinelli on the eve of Gardere’s merger with Foley & Lardner.

Joyce Mazero said she, Len MacPhee and Jess Dance joined Polsinelli as partners, and William Sentell joined as counsel, on March 29, shortly before Dallas-based Gardere merged with Foley & Lardner on April 1. Mazero is splitting her time between Polsinelli’s Dallas and Denver offices and MacPhee, Dance and Sentell joined Polsinelli’s Denver office. They were all members of Gardere’s global franchise and supply network practice.
