Lupton Fawcett announces commercial property and employment team promotions
Lupton Fawcett has promoted two of its long-standing partners to head up its commercial property and employment departments and help bolster the firm’s growth ambitions.
Julian Rowden has been appointed head of commercial property at the firm, while Angela Gorton has taken on the role of head of employment.
Julian joined Lupton Fawcett in 2013 and has over 30 years’ legal experience. He acts for buyers, sellers, landlords and tenants of commercial and agricultural property, with a particular specialism in the acquisition and disposal of rural land holdings.
With more than 25 years’ experience – including 15 as a partner at Lupton Fawcett – Angela is an employment law specialist who advises employers and senior executives on a range of human resources issues across the housebuilding, education, manufacturing and real estate sectors.
Lupton Fawcett’s managing partner, James Richardson, said: “I’m delighted to congratulate Julian and Angela on their new leadership roles within the firm.
“As well as having excellent – and well-deserved – reputations in their fields of expertise, their commitment to providing outstanding service aligns perfectly with our approach to client care and will support our future success.”
Julian said: “I’m looking forward to leading and strengthening our commercial property team as we continue to offer high-quality legal advice to existing clients, and welcome new ones.”
Angela said: “I’m excited at the prospect of managing a team of incredibly talented, commercially-minded and friendly experts in providing a first class, cost-effective service across all aspects of employment law.”
