The firm has also made a further raft of senior associate and associate promotions.
Rachel Gwynne, who has a strong track record of advising charities and not-for-profit organisations on corporate and governance matters, is promoted to senior associate and takes on the responsibility for the firm’s significant charities and not-for-profit sector group.
Corporate solicitor Steve Halkett becomes senior associate as does insolvency solicitor Emma Easton alongside her fellow insolvency solicitor Monica Kapur who is promoted to associate.
The 35-strong real estate team has also been bolstered by the appointments of Jennie Loynes, Harminder Judge and Ellie Crofts as associates and property solicitor Louise Dearling is promoted to senior associate.
Richard Lane, Wright Hassall’s managing partner, says: “We are delighted to be able to promote these solicitors, all of whom have worked extremely hard to deliver excellent client service and support our clients during the tough economic times of the last few years.
“We are definitely seeing much more activity in the market as confidence returns to the economy. These promotions reflect our commitment to supporting our clients’ plans for growth by retaining excellent solicitors with the specialist skills they need."
