Patrick Howarth joins from Ruben Lewis and O’Brien, at which he was a partner and head of the firm’s litigation team, and Hannah Davies joins as a solicitor, whilst Solicitor Antony Gibbons is promoted to Associate in the Construction Team and Polly Miller has been promoted to Claims Manager.  The promotion and recruitment of an additional two new trainee solicitors and two paralegals has further boosted the department.

Iwan Doull, partner and head of the Dispute Resolution team, said that “the department’s continued growth means that we are now one the largest dispute resolution teams based in Wales.  The addition of new team members will allow us to continue to develop our strength in depth and to provide specialist dispute resolution services throughout Wales and, increasingly, in the South of England”.

The department has for many years been recognised in both the Legal 500 and Chambers and Partners guides to the legal profession as one of the leading dispute resolution practices in Wales.  The team has experience of advising and representing clients in every forum of dispute resolution throughout Wales and England, including Adjudication, Arbitration and Court Proceedings.
