Birketts celebrates internal talent with round of promotions
October 5, 2020

Birketts has announced the promotion of 31 of its talented lawyers across four of its offices.

As a firm committed to training, professional development and inclusivity, Birketts continues to lead the market in terms of talent and expertise and is proud to invest in its employees. These promotions represent an opportunity to celebrate the hard work, ambition and skill of those recognised this year.

Those promoted have been drawn from across the full breadth of Birketts’ service offering, further testament to the calibre of its employees.

These promotions follow another successful twelve months for Birketts. In addition to ending the financial year by merging with boutique legal insurance practice EC3 Legal, the firm rose to the challenges presented by an uncertain societal and economic landscape to win a host of awards, including Winner of ‘Excellence in Client Service’ at The Cambridgeshire and District Law Society awards for the second consecutive year.

Commenting on the promotions, Jonathan Agar, Birketts’ CEO said: “These promotions highlight the firm’s diverse skillset and speak to the depth of expertise across the business. Birketts’ story is one of consistent growth and progression, and for the firm to have seen revenues rise by 9% even during these challenging times, we must take a moment to recognise the significant part that developing talent from within plays in our success. I have no doubt that these lawyers will serve a crucial role in moving the firm forward to the next chapter.”
