Liverpool law firm Morecrofts has promoted three of its team to become senior associate solicitors along with a number of other promotions
Three new senior associates in its private client and litigation teams are among latest promotions at Liverpool law firm Morecrofts.
Vicki Morris and Michael Gossage, who both completed their training contracts with Morecrofts earlier in their careers, join experienced litigation specialist Derek Dawson, who joined the firm in 2017, in stepping up to the new role.
Three of its recently qualified solicitors have also accepted roles within the firm. Aaron Ocquaye qualifies into the personal injury and clinical negligence team in Liverpool city centre.
Hannah Beardmore joins the family law team in Wirral and Josh Bourke qualifies into private client, based at the firm’s Woolton office. Costs draftsperson Katie Ward has been promoted to manager of the firm’s fee unit.
Meanwhile, Faye Kavanagh and Freja Hopwood are set to begin their training contracts in the private client and family law teams, respectively.
Last year, Morecrofts created a new management training programme aimed at equipping lawyers with wider business skills such as finance, HR and compliance, and providing clear senior pathways of succession within the business.
