We are pleased to announce that effec­tive 6 Sep­tem­ber 2021, Nicholas Dale with over 27 years’ expe­ri­ence, will be join­ing Swaab as a Part­ner in our Lit­i­ga­tion and Insol­ven­cy team. This is a sig­nif­i­cant appoint­ment for the firm as client demand for com­mer­cial lit­i­ga­tion and insol­ven­cy ser­vices con­tin­ue to grow. 

This is an excit­ing time for Swaab and our Lit­i­ga­tion and Insol­ven­cy team. Our suc­cess has come from putting our peo­ple and clients first and by mak­ing strate­gic appoint­ments that build on our strong focus on cul­ture, well­be­ing and client ser­vice. This appoint­ment will serve to bol­ster our already impres­sive lit­i­ga­tion and insol­ven­cy capa­bil­i­ties. I wish to for­mal­ly wel­come Nicholas to Swaab and I look for­ward to our ever-grow­ing suc­cess”, said Mary Digiglio, Man­ag­ing Part­ner Swaab.

I am absolute­ly delight­ed to be join­ing a firm of the cal­i­bre of Swaab. With its depth of exper­tise and range of skill sets, my long-term pro­fes­sion­al rela­tion­ships with clients and refer­rers will ben­e­fit great­ly. As I con­tin­ue to strive for excel­lence in ser­vice and results in the areas of my exper­tise, I can now also offer refer­rers and clients access to high­ly skilled prac­ti­tion­ers at the same firm in a wider range of areas”, said Nicholas Dale.
