Turner Parkinson boosts team after income tops £4m
LAW firm Turner Parkinson has announced a string of promotions after a record year which saw it top £4m turnover for the first time.
Heading the list of new arrivals and promotions is the appointment of the firm’s youngest ever partner, Will Jones, 29.
Mr Jones joined the Bridge Street-based firm as a trainee in 2005 and specialises in insolvency.
He said: “We have one of the largest insolvency departments in the North West and I am genuinely delighted to have been made partner in such a highly regarded team.”
The firm has also promoted Lisa Clough to associate in the litigation team and hired two employment solicitors, Laura Wharton and Nazia Farooq.
Laura, who joins the firm from Chester based Ellis Whittam, will predominantly advise clients on the ‘tp people’ service which provides SMEs with a fixed cost HR, employment law and health & safety advice.
The firm has also promoted Rachel Parkinson as credit controller and has trainee David Hayes on a three month secondment from criminal lawyers Burton Copeland. He is working in the corporate commercial team to widen his knowledge and experience in non-contentious areas as part of his traineeship.
