Five new partners among 19 senior promotions
Leading regional law firm, Howes Percival has announced 19 senior promotions, including five new partners, Hannah Ball, Bilal Ehsan, Alishia Marrocco, Gary Pitt and Victoria Sandell.
Charlotte Harrison, Leon Head, Louise Hunt, Shital Odedra, Stephen Ruse and Will Taylor have all been promoted to the level of legal director. Sobia Ahmad, Bethany Boucher, Katherine Channell, Kelly Longmore, Helaina Mann, Stephanie Millerchip, Aimee Newton and Deborah Wilson have been made senior associates.
The promotions follow a period of concerted growth in recent years to meet increased demand from clients and to expand the range of services Howes Percival offers in each of the firm’s locations. In January 2024, Howes Percival opened a new office in Oxford, following the acquisition of specialist commercial, IP & media law firm Maier Blackburn.
Geraint Davies, Howes Percival’s chairman commented, “Huge congratulations to everyone on their promotions. I think the whole team at Howes Percival has made an enormous contribution over the last 12 months, so while we celebrate the specific landmark of a promotion, we also recognise the hard work, dedication, and invaluable contribution everyone has made.
“We continue to invest in our people, our technology and our offices, to make Howes Percival a great place to work and develop your career. That means upgrading our offices as we have done in Leicester and Cambridge recently, to create fantastic, modern working environments. But it also means creating the opportunities for personal development. By opening three new offices in the last 10 years, we have built new teams and created opportunities across the firm both in terms of promotion and brand-new jobs at every level within Howes Percival.”
