A quintet of new partners in firm’s latest promotion round

Five legal experts have been named as new partners at Bevan Brittan as part of a round of promotions at all levels across the national firm.

In all, 38 colleagues have been promoted across the business, with a new legal director, 13 new senior associates and 19 associates joining the quintet of partners recognised for their contributions.

Successful candidates come from all four of the firm’s UK offices, with 15 in Bristol, ten in London, nine in Leeds and four in Birmingham.

The new partners include three health and care specialists, with Claire Leonard, Emma Timmons and Raj Kang all promoted. They are joined by litigation and regulatory expert Claire Jones and property lawyer Kate Hicks.

Litigation and regulatory expert Adrian Neale is also promoted, becoming a legal director in Bristol.

The promotions were welcomed by the firm’s managing partner, Duncan Weir, who said: ‘A record round of promotions tells its own story for both those who have been recognised and the wider business. Every single one of our successful colleagues has played a major role in our growth and in meeting the increasing demand for our advice on a broad range of issues.

‘Building on a decade of consistent growth, we continue to go from strength to strength. This year’s promotions reflect both the breadth and depth of the expertise and experience within our business, as well as our commitment to equality and the value we place on diversity.

‘Following this promotions round, 52% of our partners are women. Because we know that diversity enriches our business, we will continue supporting talented people to succeed.'
