(Nov. 17) – Dallas-based Thompson & Knight announced Tuesday that real estate and banking law partner Mark M. Sloan will be the law firm’s next managing partner.

Sloan, a 1990 graduate of SMU Dedman School of Law, replaces prominent tax law partner Emily Parker as the firm’s leader in February 2016. Parker was Thompson & Knight’s first woman partner and one of the few women to lead a Texas law firm.
