Dickinson Dees fills Blair's shoes" />Dickinson Dees has appointed Sally Dallow as head of the insolvency and corporate recovery team, replacing Jonathan Blair who stepped up to the role of managing partner this month.

Blair was elected when Dickinsons' managing partner of 10 years Neil Braithwaite stood down in October last year.

The firm has appointed two new partners to shore up Dallow's insolvency group (as first reported on www.thelawyer.com 17 November 2007). Will Gunston joins from the London office of Osborne Clarke, where he was an associate, and Julian Gill arrives from Watson Burton, where he was a partner.
