Berwins has promoted family lawyer Emma Lees to associate.
Lees (pictured), who both trained and qualified with the Yorkshire law firm, has been rewarded for supporting clients with expert legal work.
She was also a driving force behind the creation of the Harrogate and North Yorkshire Junior Lawyers Division, of which Lees is a vice president.
Commenting on the announcement, Lees said: “I’m thrilled to be continuing to develop my career at Berwins and to be working alongside some truly exceptional family law specialists.
“The firm is an exciting and rewarding place to work and, with new developments in the pipeline, I’m looking forward to contributing to our ongoing growth and future success.”
Danielle Day, head of family at Berwins, added “Emma has made an outstanding start to her legal career, showing not only a deep understanding of the law and a proactive approach to resolving difficulties but also to care.
“Care for our clients sits at the heart of the way Berwins operates and is particularly important when supporting those in the often challenging position of relationship breakdown.”
“This combination of attributes is something which sets Berwins apart and is an approach which Emma embodies. A bright legal career is starting to blossom and we’re thrilled to be supporting her as it does.”
