Medical negligence law firm opens 100-person Liverpool office
Medical negligence and personal injury specialist, Fletchers Group, has opened a new office in Liverpool which could employ up to 100 staff.
This is the second office opening for Fletchers Group in 2023, following the opening of Leeds in February. It adds to the firm’s Manchester and Southport locations.
The new Liverpool base sits in the heart of the city’s bustling commercial district, in the iconic Cotton Exchange building on Old Hall Street.
The Grade II-listed building is one of Liverpool’s most historic buildings, commissioned and purpose-built by Liverpool Cotton Association in 1906 to accommodate the city’s bustling cotton trade.
Spanning 4,095 sq ft, the office retains many of its original features such as wooden and marble floors, old granite columns and ironwork beams, combined with a contemporary, state-of-the-art communal workspace. The building has a wider range of modern facilities including a roof terrace, event and conference space, and cycle storage.
Alex Lynch, Fletchers Group chief financial officer, said: “The decision to open an office in Liverpool was the next logical step for the business and further underlines our intent to be market leader in the region.
“Having a growing network of offices means we are better able to attract the very best talent, as well as support the needs of our clients, regardless of where they are based.
“It gives our people a workplace they feel proud to be part of and enables the group to accelerate growth, both organically and through strategic acquisitions.”
Tim Moulton, co-head of clinical negligence will lead the Liverpool office and said: “Investing in first-class, modern facilities for our people is a clear indication of our continued commitment to the region.
“Our office in Cotton Exchange will give our Liverpool-based colleagues a comfortable, modern, and creative space in which to work, collaborate and excel in, and will enable us to tap into the exceptional talent pool available across Liverpool and beyond to better serve our clients. These are very exciting times for Fletchers Group.”
