Dickinson Wright has opened an office in El Paso with four lawyers from the recently shuttered El Paso office of Dykema Cox Smith.

Dykema Cox Smith, based in Detroit, closed its El Paso office June 30. The El Paso office of Dickinson Wright, also a Detroit-based firm, is in Dykema Cox's former space, and is its second Texas office.

Kathleen Campbell Walker and her husband, Mark Walker, have joined Dickinson Wright as members, and Mario Franke and Heather Frayre have joined as of counsel. They started at the firm on July 1.
