Within the litigation team, disputes and insolvency specialist Steve Sutton, who joined the firm as a solicitor in April 2024, has also been promoted to the position of senior associate. Meanwhile, Nermin Suleman (second right), who joined the litigation team at Glaisyers ETL in 2022, has been promoted from solicitor to associate.
Commenting on her promotion to partnership, Ms Vachre said, 'I am incredibly honoured and excited to be promoted to partner at Glaisyers ETL. This milestone is a reflection of the hard work, dedication, and collaboration I’ve experienced working with an incredible team, and I’m eager to continue contributing to the firm’s success in my new role.'
The firm’s employment practice has also seen two promotions this month. Associate Jennifer Johnson has been promoted to senior associate, while solicitor Natalie Howitt (left) has become an associate.
In the corporate team, meanwhile, associate Niki Polymeridou (second left) has become a senior associate.
The six newly promoted lawyers are all based at the firm’s Manchester head office.
Russell Brown, managing partner and head of employment at Glaisyers ETL, said, 'All six of the promotions announced this month are very well deserved and reflect both their contributions to-date and the potential that I have no doubt they will all fulfil in the future.
'I am proud to work with such capable, motivated colleagues and I look forward to continuing to do so and seeing the results they deliver for clients, and for our firm, over the course of 2025 and the years ahead.'
In addition to its latest round of promotions, the firm is continuing to recruit actively. In particular, it has a vacancy for a senior associate in its private client team.
