Levi Solicitors, a well-regarded law firm based in Leeds, recently celebrated a significant milestone—its 90th anniversary. The firm marked this occasion by hosting a charity coffee morning and cake sale at its north Leeds office, drawing attendance from clients, local businesses, and residents. This event aimed not only to commemorate the firm’s longstanding presence but also to support St Gemma’s Hospice, a local charity.
The coffee morning and cake sale, which featured treats prepared by the firm’s practice manager and resident baker, Janet, was pivotal in raising funds for the hospice. Levi Solicitors has embraced a year-long celebration theme, during which it aims to support additional charities such as Homeless Street Angels and the Yorkshire Children’s Charity. This commitment reflects their integrated approach to community engagement, which has included various fundraising activities such as cake sales, football tournaments, and notably, a 90-mile team walk conducted in September.
Senior partner Ian Land expressed his gratitude towards the community’s unwavering support over the years. He noted, ‘We are so proud to be celebrating 90 years in business. The people of north Leeds have supported us for so long, we knew we needed to invite them to join our celebrations.’ Land’s remarks underscore the mutual reliance and strength of the firm’s relationship with its community, highlighting the importance of these celebrations.
Alex Newman, operations manager, commented on the firm’s ongoing commitment to giving back to the community, stating, ‘As a Leeds firm, it is vital that we give back. As part of our 90th-year celebrations, we have committed to raising money for three local charities, chosen by our team.’ The strategic selection of these charities by the team underscores the firm’s dedication to addressing local needs and supporting groups that resonate with their staff.
Levi Solicitors has built a reputation for its client-centric approach since its inception in 1934 by Jack Levi. Over the years, it has expanded with two offices in Leeds and one in London. Despite challenges over the past nine decades, including economic recessions and a global pandemic, the firm has maintained a strong focus on team development and innovation. Remarkably, nearly 40% of its solicitors have been trained in-house, which demonstrates their commitment to professional growth.
