North West law firm accelerates national expansion with new Yorkshire base

A family law firm based in Manchester has announced the opening of its first Yorkshire office.

Hall Brown Family Law is set to launch its new office in Sheffield as part of its wider expansion plans.

The firm’s senior partner Sam Hall described the move as a “natural progression” due to an increasing workload originating from east of the Pennines.

Sam explained: “We have seen our launches in Manchester and London thoroughly vindicated by a dramatic rise in caseload, so it made perfect sense to us to open an office in yet another area which has generated an increasing amount of work.”

The move comes a year after the launch of new larger offices in London, as well as a series of senior appointments over the last 12 months.

Commenting on establishing the new office during the COVID-19 pandemic, Sam continued: “We have been quite able to adapt to these exceptional circumstances.

“That is something which has arguably become even more important because although many people’s routines have been transformed, family life goes on and has arguably become more intense due to everyone having to spend more time at home.

“Furthermore, we are confident that our office in Sheffield will be able to cope just as well as those in Manchester and London during the current situation and once the restrictions are lifted.”
