Vincents Solicitors joins forces with high-profile divorce lawyer

Vincents Solicitors has teamed up with divorce lawyer Mary Lowe and has renamed its Lytham Park Street branch to mark the launch of the joint venture.

Mary is a highly experienced legal practitioner, with 31 years of experience in family law. She most recently worked as a consultant for London-based freelance law firm Scott Moncrieff, and is a member of Resolution, First for Family Law and Solicitors for the Elderly.

Having lived in Lytham for 30 years, Mary is also a well-known figure in the town and has been involved with a number of charitable causes and business networking groups, including helping to raise the £30,000 required to stage Lytham Club Day.

Mary has relocated her team of four to join the existing Vincents wills and probate team. The newly combined practice will be known as Mary E Lowe at Vincents Solicitors and now offers the full range of family and private client legal services.

Mary said: "I am privileged to have worked with some incredible lawyers and amazing clients over the last 30 years, including some very high profile stars from stage, screen and stadium.

"These last seven years with Scott Moncrieff have been remarkable but my workload has increased to the point that I needed to take the next step and join forces with a bigger team with a like-minded approach in order to grow the business further.

"When Vincents’ Phillip Gilmore approached me, I knew this was the right company for my team and for my clients, allowing the expansion of my offering while maintaining the high quality of service for which I am known.

"Vincents has given me an exciting opportunity to develop the Park Street branch and retain my autonomy, to continue to act in the best interests of my existing clients and attract new business, and to play my part in contributing towards the development of the wider firm."

The deal sees Mary become a partner in the Park Street branch joint venture and a director for the wider firm. It will allow Mary to provide her clients with the full range of legal services offered by Vincents, from corporate and commercial to family and private client, to serious injury and medical negligence, and will provide the firm’s other clients with access to Mary’s expertise.

Phillip Gilmore, managing director of Vincents Solicitors, added: "Mary Lowe is a name any divorce lawyer will be familiar with, she has a formidable reputation and achieves incredible outcomes for her clients.

"She is highly experienced, incredibly professional, and a genuinely lovely person, and so is a very welcome addition to the Vincents team. The combination of Mary’s expertise with that of our existing team at Park Street will give clients on the Fylde coast access to a truly enviable group of legal professionals."
