Leading law firm Kirwans has bolstered its Family department with the appointment of a new solicitor.

Sarah Platt has joined the North West law firm in order to support the firm’s expanding family offering.

Sarah’s new role will see her providing legal guidance and representation to clients on a wide range of family law matters including, guardianship orders and domestic violence.

Claire Currie, Partner and Head of Family, said:

“Sarah’s appointment strengthens our family law services and underlines our commitment to providing our clients with the best possible advice and support as they experience or prepare for what is often a life-changing event.”

University of Liverpool graduate Sarah, who is also a qualified barrister, joins the firm from Canter Levin & Berg, where she completed a training contract.

She said:

“I am delighted to be joining such an established yet forward-thinking firm and am looking forward to supporting the family department as it continues to develop its client offering.”
