Keebles has appointed Danielle Swainston as a solicitor to its Doncaster-based litigation and dispute resolution department.
Swainston has more than six years of experience. She practices in a broad spectrum of legal services, including contested probates, contractual disputes, tenancy disputes and debt recovery.
She said: “I’m looking forward to bringing my strong litigation background and skills to Keebles and working in such a thriving law firm.”
“Making the move from a smaller local team to a large Yorkshire organisation like Keebles is a big step up, however, the firm still has a really localised feel about it which was one of the things that really attracted me to working here.”
“I am pleased to start my new role at such a positive time for the firm. As someone who has grown up in Doncaster, I am pleased to be working alongside local people and working for a firm that is so embedded within the town.”
Keebles partner Sarah Burton said: “Danielle brings a whole wealth of experience to the team having worked in the personal litigation and dispute resolution services for a number of years.”
“Danielle brings with her not only fantastic experience; she really cares about providing an excellent service for the people of Doncaster and we look forward to working together to further develop our team and services moving forward into 2020 and beyond.”
Elsewhere at the firm, Keebles recently joined Sheffield Digital to help provide legal expertise to that city’s digital scene.
Sheffield Digital is an organisation for businesses and individuals involved in the city’s digital industries and aims to develop the best possible working environment for setting up, working in and growing digital businesses by connecting, representing and promoting its members.
The partnership will provide Keebles with access to the most up-to-date industry developments and news, and access to networking and meet ups across the city.
