The firm, which has offices in London and Manchester, has seen its Leeds team expand from three partners in 2016 to a current partner headcount of 30.

Covering areas including dispute resolution, employment, banking and finance, Healthcare, commercial real estate and sport, the firm has worked with clients such as Jet2.com, Barclays, RBS, Santander, Yodel, JD Sports and Pets At Home.

“I’m excited at the momentum that this is creating in our business plan.”
