“He is a valued team member with a strong commercial mind which, combined with his high levels of commitment, makes him a real asset to the firm and a very worthy partner.”
Matthew Rose added: “The last few years at GA have allowed me to develop both as a solicitor and as an individual. The firm has supported me through extra qualifications and allowed me to have insight into both the business and its management.
“I am delighted to have been named a partner of the firm and for the hard work I have undertaken to be recognised in such a manner. GA Solicitors is undoubtedly one of the most forward-thinking firms in the city and I am excited to be playing a part in its future.”
