Private law team from Gordons LLP move to found new firm

Leading private lawyers Frances Davies, Suzannah Farnell, Simon Glazebrook, and Martin Hasyn, with over 50 years’ experience between them in advising private clients, today announced the launch of their new firm Progeny Private Law.

Frances, Suzannah, Martin and Simon firmly believe in a team-based approach, having all worked together previously at Gordons LLP, and have created a firm which is passionate about its clients and their legal issues, creating an environment where all challenges are viewed as opportunities.

The new firm believes there is scope for more competition in the private law market, where clients can develop personalised relationships with Progeny within a professional framework, whether these clients are high net worth individuals, families or business owners.The firm is designed to meet the needs of these clients, receiving the personal attention of individual lawyers, who are focused on achieving their specific goals.

Frances comments: “We are really excited to be involved with a business from the very beginning, to create a working environment where people are proud to be lawyers and to have the opportunity to place clients’ interests at the centre of everything.”

Suzannah says: “The idea behind Progeny is to create a firm where excellence is the standard of every aspect of the business - excellent legal advice, first class client service and outstanding training and development opportunities for all the members of our team.”
