Some of West Yorkshire’s most recognisable solicitors are celebrating an impressive 40 weeks since taking over one of the county’s law firms.
Jeremy Garside, Robert Brackup and Tim Welton have brought a new look and approach to Williams & Co Solicitors since they assumed control of the practice in February.
The rebrand builds on the Cleckheaton-based firm’s previous work and adds the wealth of knowledge and experience of the new partners who are well-known figures in the Yorkshire legal sector.
Together, they have 75 years’ experience supporting business and individuals across Kirklees, West Yorkshire and beyond.
The growth in the practice has come from across its specialisms – residential property, commercial and corporate, specialist litigation and probate, with the firm already 30 per cent ahead of target and looking to increase turnover to £2m within the next 12 months.
To service this demand from existing and new clients, the firm has made ten appointments to strengthen the team which now numbers 23 people. Recruitment of a further eight staff in the next three to six months is planned which would take the firm to twice its original size.
Jeremy Garside, partner at Williams & Co, said:
“It was our ambition to strengthen and build the team at Williams & Co quickly but even we are impressed by the speed at which we have managed to grow the firm. This is down to the talented individuals who aim to deliver high quality services in language that clients understand to produce the results they are looking for. It has been an exciting year so far and we are now looking forward to an even more exciting 2017.”
With offices in Cleckheaton and Wakefield, Williams & Co specialises in commercial and civil litigation, regulatory defence, commercial property and conveyancing.
