Internal promotions mark next phase of growth

Daniel Williams, Jennifer Quayle and Gillian Ibbotson join the firm’s directors, while Kelly Maguire, Nadine Kilvington and Rachel Fletcher have all become associate solicitors.

This follows the appointment of a new owner and leadership team in 2020, which saw Elizabeth Armstrong take over the role of managing director alongside co-directors Natalie Palmer, Martin Williamson and Adam Wood.

In addition to appointing a new senior team, Latimer Hinks has made a significant investment in our building and IT systems to revolutionise the way that we work with our clients. The firm’s footprint in Darlington is also increasing to accommodate its growth with their proposed expansion into additional premises in the town centre.

Daniel Williams, director at Latimer Hinks, said: “Latimer Hinks is well into its next phase of growth and development, and has demonstrated a commitment to future planning and continuity with these key promotions.

“I’m incredibly proud to be part of the director team and an integral part in the growth of Latimer Hinks, as we continue to serve Darlington and our clients in the North East and elsewhere. It’s a privilege to be part of an established and well-regarded firm with a clear plan for years to come.”

Kelly Maguire, associate solicitor, said: “What underpins Latimer Hinks’ success and the firm’s dedication to providing exceptional legal services has been its commitment to organic growth throughout its history, which I am very excited to be a part of.”

Elizabeth Armstrong, managing director at Latimer Hinks, said: “I’m delighted that, as part of our ongoing strategy to grow and build upon our strengths, we have had the opportunity to welcome six of our existing solicitors to the senior leadership team.

“I know they’re eager to get their teeth into the next phase and are ready to provide the Latimer Hinks brand of exceptional service and legal expertise to even more clients across the region.”
