Richard Macklin
Dentons global vice chair Richard Macklin has left the firm after more than 30 years during which he helped struggling London practice Denton Wilde Sapte become a founding component of what is now the world’s largest law firm.
Macklin, who was also global client partner with a seat on the global board, stood down at the end of December to take up a portfolio of advisory, coaching and consulting roles, including with Lexington Consultants, which has teamed up with The Global Legal Post to run the three-day law firm management course: Preparing your law firm for success in the post-pandemic era. He was one of five global vice chairs appointed in 2016 to represent Dentons’ regions.
