Wright Hassall—four appointments

Four newly-qualified solicitors join the team in Leamington Spa

A leading Midlands law firm has announced the appointment of four newly-qualified solicitors following the completion of their training contracts.

Chloe Gardner, Emily-Jade Hodson, Adam Morris and Charlotte Kahrman have started their now roles at Wright Hassall, based on Olympus Avenue, in Leamington Spa.

Gardner joins a growing team of more than 30 in the firm’s real estate division, while Hodson becomes the latest member of its nationally-renowned commercial litigation department.

Elsewhere, Morris joins its leading employment team, while Kahrman arrives as the seventh member of the firm’s contentious probate team—making it one of the largest in the Midlands.

Partner Lucie Byron, who leads the trainee programme at Wright Hassall, said: 'I am really pleased for our newly-qualified solicitors and would like to congratulate Chloe, Emily, Adam and Charlotte as they start their new roles with us.

'At Wright Hassall, we have always believed in developing our own talent and providing a first-class training programme which invests in the growth and development of the next generation of talent.

'All four have brought real drive and enthusiasm to their work and I look forward to watching their careers progress further at the company.”

Wright Hassall was established in 1846 and employs more than 245 people, including almost 40 partners.

A further intake to its training programme is to be announced later in the year.
