Fletchers expands clinical negligence arm

A North West law firm has expanded its specialist services with a new acquisition.

Fletchers Group has bought the clinical negligence arm of Bury-based Sheldon Davidson Solicitors (SDS). 

Bosses say two team members from SDS will join Fletchers, while all active clinical negligence cases will transfer to the firm. 

They add that the rest of SDS will continue operating independently, focusing on personal injury and housing disrepair.

Charlene Mann, Fletchers’ managing director of new acquisitions, said: “It’s great to welcome Sheldon Davidson Solicitors’ clinical negligence clients and colleagues to Fletchers. 

“This acquisition reinforces our strategy to grow by partnering with like-minded practices that complement our own – always putting client service and legal expertise at the forefront of everything we do.

“This latest development underlines our position as the UK’s leading clinical negligence practice and reinforces our ambition to continue setting the highest standards in the sector.”

The move builds on Fletchers’ recent expansion efforts, including the takeover of Scott Rees, in January, and the launch of a new office, in Newcastle, in May.
