North East firm Clarke Mairs has strengthened the litigation team with the appointment of property litigation partner James Godden.
James joins the Newcastle-based firm after almost ten years with Gordon Brown Law Firm. He advises landlords, tenants, developers and investors on a wide range of property disputes, including matters relating to breach of contract, debt enforcement and professional negligence. He also offers particular expertise in enfranchisement.
Tim Clarke, partner at Clarke Mairs, said: ‘We’re delighted to have James on board at last—he has extensive experience in property litigation and unrivalled expertise in dealing with this complex area of the law and we’re looking forward to seeing the litigation team grow.’
James also commented: ‘I had been aware of Clarke Mairs for many years and was really attracted to their forward-thinking approach to working with clients and staff. The fact that they are located centrally is also a big advantage. I’m excited to be widening the litigation offering for the firm.’
