Law firm kicks off growth plans with recruitment drive

By Farleys Solicitors LLP

20 Feb 2019

Full service law firm Farleys Solicitors has launched a recruitment drive in order to support ambitious growth plans over the next three years.

The firm, which currently employs 140 people across Manchester and Lancashire, is recruiting for a number of specialist solicitors across the firm’s six offices, to complement its existing offering in both commercial and personal legal services.

Significant and continued growth in Farleys’ corporate and commercial client portfolio is one of the key factors pushing the recruitment drive, opening up opportunities for both commercial property and corporate lawyers to play a key role in the continued success of the firm

Similarly, the firm’s personal injury teams are seeing a surge in medical negligence enquiries and looking to bring on board additional legal specialists to support its ever-growing client base.

Farleys have already invested in a number of key appointments and practice areas, most recently launching a specialist immigration service to complement the firm’s current offering

Managing partner Ian Liddle said:

“As a business we recognise that our people are central to our continued success and we are continuing with our strategy of hiring the best talent to boost the skills of our established teams, in order to support the firm’s ambitious growth plans across the region.

We continue to take on high calibre new people, which is indicative of our commitment to increasing and strengthening our teams across a range of practice areas and support functions.

These are exciting times for our business and we're keen to attract talented people who will share our values and play a key part in the continued success of the firm”.
