Hull law firm Rollits has announced the appointment of three new partners at the firm.
Following the firm’s move to become a Limited Liability Partnership on 1 May 2010, Caroline Hardcastle, Donna Ingleby and Tom Morrison have been appointed partners at the firm.
Donna Ingleby, who joined the firm two years ago, becomes a partner in the firm’s Employment Group as a specialist in contentious and non-contentious employment issues, including tribunal preparation and advocacy. She will continue to work alongside Neil Maidment in the Group which has one of the largest specialist employment teams in the region.
Tom Morrison, who has been with the firm since joining as a Trainee Solicitor in 1999, becomes a partner in Rollits' Commercial Group. Tom specialises in advising on contractual matters, intellectual property, data protection, freedom of information, information technology and e-commerce.
Meanwhile, Caroline Hardcastle, who trained with Kennedys Solicitors in London, becomes a partner within Rollits’ Dispute Resolution department dealing with a range of commercial disputes. Caroline, who has worked at Rollits for eleven years, specialises in construction and engineering disputes where she has acted on behalf of employers, developers and contractors in adjudications and Court proceedings.
Managing Partner Richard Field said: “We encourage continual professional development throughout Rollits so it is very pleasing to see three talented individuals progressing through the firm and taking their position as partners. Their commitment to the firm and their depth of knowledge of client sectors and the services they provide is a great asset to Rollits and our clients.”
