Jan 14 (Reuters) - Rafael Perez has left Cozen O'Connor, where he was co-chair of the public and project finance practice group, to join Edwards Wildman Palmer in its Madison, New Jersey, office. He will be partner in the public finance department.

David Magee is moving from Bingham McCutchen to Pepper Hamilton in Boston, where he will be of counsel in the intellectual property department.

Neal Gerber Eisenberg has added three new attorneys to its real estate practice group in Chicago. Joining as senior counsel are Glen Cornblath from Krasnow Saunders Cornblath Kaplan & Beninati and Mark Horne from Quarles & Brady. Mindy Kurlanksy, who joins as associate counsel, was most recently assistant general counsel for the Illinois Department of Transportation.

K&L Gates has hired two new partners in its Dallas office. Mary Korby comes to the firm's corporate practice from Weil, Gotshal & Manges, and T. Gregory Jackson from Geary, Porter & Donovan will be in the commercial disputes practice.

Also in Dallas, Jonathan Wilson has joined Littler Mendelson as shareholder after leaving Haynes and Boone. In its Mexico City office, Haynes and Boone has hired Cecilia Flores as of counsel and she will join the litigation and trial practice group. Previously, Flores spent six years as secretary general for the Mediation and Arbitration Center of the Mexico City National Chamber of Commerce.

Vedder Price has hired Richard Thomas, formerly of Salans, as partner in its London office. He joins the firm's finance and transactions practice.

Dr. Matthias Kampshoff is now partner in McDermott Will & Emery's restructuring and insolvency practice, based in Dusseldorf, Germany. He formerly practiced with Taylor Wessing.

(This post has been corrected. A previous version stated that David Magee had joined Pepper Hamilton as partner. He has joined as of counsel.)
