A RAPIDLY expanding law firm has opened a new North-East office and hired three new staff members within a year of its launch.
PG Legal, established by commercial property solicitor Phillip Dean, has also moved its original office into larger premises on the Team Valley trading estate in Gateshead and forged partnerships with six consultants in the past six months.
The firm has opened a new office within the Stockton Business Centre which will be headed up by experienced litigation lawyer Jonathan Fletcher who has practiced commercial law on Teesside for 19 years and is an expert in equine law.
The firm has also taken on three new members of staff and awarded its first training contract.
Mr Dean, who met Mr Fletcher at university, said: “Our first year exceeded all expectations and we are now growing our client base and our own staff numbers.
“We have already moved into bigger offices in the north of the region and now is the right time for us to move into Teesside to take advantage of Jonathan’s knowledge of the area and connections within it.
“We believe that our commercial legal offering will be just as attractive to Teesside businesses as it has proved to be on Tyneside, which is why we are delighted to announce our move into Stockton.”
