An exciting new chapter for Hamlins LLP today as we announce the acquisition of boutique law firm Swan Turton. We are thrilled to welcome our new colleagues to the Hamlins team. Their expertise enhances our media and entertainment offering, and demonstrates our appetite for strategic growth.   Managing Partner Matthew Pryke says: “This deal is a milestone in our evolution, bringing together two firms at the top of their game. Their expertise both deepens and expands our services, especially on the non-contentious side, while Swan Turton clients will have access to our broader offering. Most importantly, there is a fantastic cultural fit between our two firms.” Partner Julian Bentley says: “At the heart of this deal is that we felt we would be really comfortable with these people. It seemed sensible for the long-term future of our practice to merge with a firm able to provide our clients with a much wider range of legal services. We have had an incredibly positive reaction and see it as an opportunity to build on the many successes of Swan Turton over the past 19 years.” Read more here 👇 https://lnkd.in/eXi3XZKr
