Vincents Solicitors—Angela Garvey

Lancashire law firm appoints divorce specialist

Angela Garvery (pictured, right) has recently joined Vincents Solicitors' family law team. Angela will work alongside department head Mark Mosley (pictured, left) for the first time in 20 years, having previously been opposing council on numerous cases.

Angela has more than 30 years’ experience in family law and is a member of family justice organisation, Resolution, the group which sets the standard for best practice in this field. She joins Vincents in Preston from NGA in Burnley, prior to which she worked for Napthens, Birchall Blackburn, and Watson Ramsbottom.

Speaking of her appointment, Angela said: 'I was looking for an opportunity to develop a team using the Resolution approach, something Vincents is known for thanks to the great work of Mark Mosley and his department. Mark has an excellent reputation in the industry and the prospect of working with him was very appealing, I’ve sat opposite him many times over the years and have huge respect for his approach.'

Director, Mark Mosley added: 'I am thrilled to welcome Angela as a solicitor who I know and respect for operating with the same ethos as Vincents, and who was always a worthy adversary in the field.'

Angela will be based primarily at Vincents’ Preston headquarters but will be working remotely from her home in Blackburn.
