Senior statesman retires after 30 years

Dispute resolution specialist and partner Patrick Cordingley has celebrated his retirement from Chattertons Solicitors & Wealth Management after 30 years with the firm.

Patrick joined the Horncastle office of East Midlands firm Chattertons in 1989, and was appointed as chairman in 2016. He focused his practice on litigation and dispute resolution, including equity claims, property disputes and large commercial disputes. He also defended clients accused of road traffic offences and regulatory crime, and was a member of the Association of Professional Negligence Lawyers.

Patrick said: ‘I consider myself very fortunate to have been part of a firm with such a long history as Chattertons. There have been many changes over the years and I will miss the hustle and bustle of the legal profession but I am looking forward to resolving what to do with my spare time.’

CEO Edward Conway added: ‘It is a tremendous achievement to have worked as a solicitor for more than 30 years. Patrick has a reputation as a tenacious litigator and has worked extremely hard for the business. He has however, mellowed to become our senior statesman providing words of wisdom whenever required.’

‘He will be missed by all of us at Chattertons and we wish him a long and happy retirement.’
