Raworths harvests a bumper crop

Raworths’ agriculture partner, William Kinread, is celebrating receiving a special mention for being ‘particularly efficient’ in the latest edition of the national and international guide to law firms, Legal 500.

It is one of seven recommendations in the widely respected publication for the Harrogate firm, which is a record for it, and follows the recent inclusion of three Raworths partners in Chambers UK Directory 2014.

William Kinread’s practice includes advising on sales and purchases of agricultural land (often with linked overage agreements), options and planning matters. His team of agricultural specialists was established to cater for the legal needs of those living and working in rural areas across its operating footprint.

The seven areas of expertise for Raworths in the area covering Leeds, West and North Yorkshire are corporate and commercial; employment; commercial property; commercial litigation; family law; agriculture and estates; and personal tax, trusts and probate.

Head of corporate at Raworths, partner Simon Morris says, “Our geographical area is dominated by some of the most substantial law firms in the UK which operate out of Leeds. It is therefore especially gratifying to demonstrate through the Guide that we can punch above our weight in this very competitive environment.
