North West law firm Stephensons Solicitors LLP has recruited Leanne Millhouse to its commercial team based at Middlebrook in Bolton.
Leanne, from Harwood in Bolton, has joined the firm from SNG Commercial Law in Manchester.
Her role at Stephensons will involve all areas of commercial and civil litigation, as well as bankruptcy and insolvency proceedings, professional negligence claims, injunctions and general commercial disputes. Her remit will include acting for a wide range of clients from individuals to companies to insurance claims.
Leanne said: “I chose Stephensons because it is a very successful and respected regional firm with a national reputation and client base. I have nine years’ experience within the Manchester market and I’m keen to expand on this experience with the help and assistance of the firm.”
Stephensons’ commercial team advises small and medium sized businesses on all aspects of commercial law, including business recovery, commercial property, debt recovery, employment, insolvency and litigation, private client services and regulatory law.
The team is recommended in several areas of the latest Legal 500 guide for its commercial acumen and has launched innovative fixed price commercial services aimed at helping businesses better budget for their legal fees during the current economic downturn. The fixed price services cover employment law, debt recovery and landlord and tenant services.
Jonathan Chadwick, Managing Partner of Stephensons’ commercial department said: “Leanne’s arrival and the expertise she will bring to our Commercial team strengthens our offering to businesses for their legal needs. We are proud of the fact that we can offer a ‘city centre’ standard of legal services but with a strong emphasis on value for money fees.”
