                          Among the Lupton Fawcett solicitors highlighted in the guide are Meghan Waldron, senior associate solicitor in its Regulatory and Corporate Defence team, who has been named as a ‘Rising Star’ in her field, and Thomas Watkins, a partner in the firm’s Employment team, who has been named as a ‘Next Generation Partner’.

                          “To be recommended in the guide is a testament to our capabilities in these fields – and it’s even better that in some cases we have been ranked on a par with much larger firms, including some operating not just nationally but globally.

                          “It demonstrates that we have one of the best – if not the best – value offerings in the region and is clear evidence that firms and individuals don’t need to look outside Yorkshire for expert legal advice and outstanding client care.”
