New partner joins firm's corporate & commercial team

The firm is delighted that Erol Huseyin has joined the corporate and commercial team at Brachers, having been a partner at Norton Rose Fulbright in the City for the past ten years.

Erol has a distinguished track record, having also worked at Magic Circle firm Allen & Overy for five years before joining Norton Rose in 1998 and becoming partner in 2006. He has some 20 years’ experience advising businesses and lenders on all aspects of commercial transactions, with a particular specialism in energy.  His expertise includes advising on joint venture arrangements, business and share sales, product supply and sales & distribution arrangements, IP licensing, and loan and other finance structures. Erol has extensive experience of running and supervising teams of lawyers on projects and providing focused, risk-based advice to clients.

Erol said: “I am thrilled to be joining Brachers and am excited about the new chapter opening up in front of me. Brachers deservedly has a high reputation for its wide-ranging work with businesses across the spectrum in Kent and indeed the south east more widely. There is a strong team of experienced lawyers at the firm and I am really looking forward to working with them to bring clients the advice and guidance they need.”

James Bullock, head of corporate at Brachers, said: “We are very pleased that Erol is coming on board. His experience speaks for itself and I have no doubt that clients will greatly value working with him due to the knowledge, insight and support he can bring them. His appointment comes as we continue to invest in the strength and depth of our business and commercial teams—as the trend continues of businesses seeking specialist advice locally rather than gravitating to London. Our work is about providing the legal support to help businesses face their future with confidence, whether it’s advice on deals, contractual risks, contingency planning, or strategic projects. Whatever it is, we’re here to help businesses in Kent and beyond reach their full potential.”
