Slater Heelis has appointed three new solicitors as part of its wider growth strategy across the North West, including two hires for its recently launched Chester office. The firm said the appointments reflect its long-term commitment to expanding its presence in the city and supporting a growing local client base.
Liam Hall (pictured, centre) has joined the wills, trusts and probate team in Chester, advising clients on estate administration and probate matters, while Jordan Bear (right) joins the personal injury team with experience in employers’ liability and public liability claims. The third appointment, Joe Madigan (left), joins the family team at the firm’s Sale headquarters, advising on divorce, financial remedy disputes and child arrangements matters.
The Chester office opened last year and has become a key focus for the firm’s regional expansion plans. Slater Heelis said the latest hires demonstrate the momentum behind the office’s growth and its ambition to strengthen its reputation for high-quality legal advice in the area.
Rachel Fletcher, managing partner at Slater Heelis Solicitors, said: ‘Chester is a really exciting part of our growth story’ and described the appointments as ‘a significant step forward’. She added: ‘The quality of talent we are attracting to Chester reflects both the opportunity we see there and the reputation we are building in the city.’
