Jon joins us at an exciting time as we are gaining real traction in our commercial/corporate practice across the insurance industry. We are fortunate to have an exceptional insurance claims team here at Bond Dickinson and see the growth of our non-contentious lines as a natural progression. Jon will play an important role here."

Drake said: “The marketplace for legal services to the insurance industry is constantly evolving to accommodate the changing nature of insurance regulations both UK and international with initiatives such as Flood Re and Solvency II. That makes it exciting and a great area to be involved in. I look forward to working with John and the team at Bond Dickinson and share their enthusiasm and commitment to support what matters most to our clients in this sector.”
