Two partners who opened a Tysons, Virginia, office for Dentons two years ago have left for Morgan, Lewis & Bockius.

Giovanna Cinelli and Kenneth Nunnenkamp join Morgan Lewis as partners, with Cinelli tapped to co-lead the firm's international trade, national security and economic sanctions practice. Morgan Lewis announced their move on Monday.

The Philadelphia-founded firm does not have an office in Northern Virginia, so Cinelli and Nunnenkamp will be based out of Washington, D.C.
