The region's top lawyers: Tees Valley

Sep 29 2006

By The Journal

 

Tees Valley

The regeneration of the Tees Valley region has meant growth in local business, providing scope for the expansion of local law firms to best service the new arrivals.

Jacksons Commercial & Private Law LLP provides a range of legal services, from corporate and commercial to agriculture and countryside, to commercial and private clients located regionally and further afield. Insurance is no longer a focus, since the 2003 move of the insurance team to Berrymans Lace Mawer. Clients find the firm "reliable and accessible, always providing a consistent service".

---------------------------------------------------------

The ambitious Tilly Bailey & Irvine continues to expand after the move of the commercial arm of the business to the Tees Valley in 2002. The firm, which also has offices in Hartlepool, Stockton-on-Tees, Newcastle and Barnard Castle, boosted its practice with five new recruits in 2005, in corporate and commercial, IP and employment.

---------------------------------------------------------

Another firm with a committed commercial focus is The Endeavour Partnership LLP, which provides high-quality advice to local Teesside businesses.

---------------------------------------------------------

Archers Law LLP has strength in both corporate and commercial and personal injury work, and receives good feedback from clients for the commerciality of its approach: "The firm delivered in line with quotes and estimates and kept me appraised of costs to date." Another client meanwhile confirmed that it "did a superb job of handling an MBO for me, securing an excellent deal for the right price and terms".
