Niche law firm announces new partner

A niche commercial law firm in Leicester has announced a new partner.

Jatinder Kandola has been promoted by Southall Hathaway & Co after less than a year with the company.

Kandola was previously principal associate and head of commercial property at the city centre-based firm.

Southall Hathaway & Co managing partner Stuart Southall said: “Jatinder has been an absolutely integral part of the development of this practice recently and her promotion is very much earned. She has implemented a great system and attracted high calibre clients, so this – added to Jatinder’s reputation and skill set – as seen our property work and client base change much for the better.

“That kudos and increase in standing has solely been as a result of Jatinder’s hard work and dedication and I wanted to recognise her contribution. She is an extremely valued and well respected member of the Southall Hathaway & Co senior team.”

Kandola is an expert in acquisitions, disposals and developing and letting property and land. She has a particular specialism in ecclesiastical property law.
