North East law firms forge new partnership

North East law firms TLW Solicitors and Jacksons Law Firm have come together in a new partnership to enhance their overall service offerings.

The linkup will see the pair working closely together and sharing best practice and expertise from their respective specialisms to provide a better service for clients.

Financial misselling experts TLW recently won the Law Firm of the Year award (1-5 partners) at this year’s Northern Law Awards, secured respected Lexcel accreditation for the fourth consecutive year and also became an approved member of brain injury association and national charity ‘Headway’.

Meanwhile, Jacksons Law Firm is currently celebrating its 140th anniversary and has recently expanded both its Newcastle and Teesside office.

Peter McKenna, Partner at TLW Solicitors said: “The legal market can be very challenging to operate in so it is fantastic to see this partnership with Jacksons come to fruition.

“Like TLW, Jacksons is a very forward thinking firm and by working together we can offer a wider range of services to clients as well as joining forces on marketing initiatives and events. The partnership will see clients getting a better service and the firms benefiting from closer working.

“We’re looking forward to working with the team at Jacksons and building long-lasting connections with the firm.”

Jacksons managing partner Jane Armitage commented: “There is a tremendous synergy between the goals of Jacksons and TLW. TLW are a niche firm focusing on serious injury and financial mis-selling, whilst Jacksons offer a broader range of services – but we have a shared goal in improving client service.

“Both firms have a depth of talent that together will consolidate our position in the market and create an even stronger platform for excellent service and results.”
