Liam Brooke has made a significant career move by joining Ramsdens Solicitors as a partner, a position that sees him leading the firm’s expanding will, trust, and estate disputes division. This appointment is a strategic addition to Ramsdens Solicitors, aimed at bolstering their leadership in an area that requires both precision and expertise.
Brooke transitions to Ramsdens from Rothley Law’s private client practice, where he was a principal associate. With a professional background deeply rooted in contentious trust and probate matters, his transition to Ramsdens marks a notable enrichment to the team. His prior experience includes tenures at Clarion and Irwin Mitchell, further solidifying his credentials as a seasoned expert in legal disputes.
Ramsdens’ strategy to strengthen its core team is evident with this appointment. Earlier in the year, the firm also welcomed Steven Murgatroyd, a senior associate specializing in dispute resolution, wills, and probate. The firm’s five-strong team, now with Brooke as a partner, is poised to drive forward with enhanced capabilities. This team plays a critical role within the larger private wealth and succession, and Court of Protection teams, which are among the largest in Yorkshire.
Nick Armitage, head of Ramsdens’ dispute resolution teams, expressed enthusiasm regarding Brooke’s joining, noting it as a ‘welcome boost’ for the team. Such moves are indicative of Ramsdens’ commitment to maintaining its status as a regional leader in contentious probate law.
Brooke himself is well-acquainted with Ramsdens’ esteemed standing in the private client sector. He acknowledges the opportunity to further develop a contentious probate practice that not only matches but rivals large national firms. “We are fortunate to have such experienced specialist lawyers here at Ramsdens,” Brooke remarked, underlining the strategic importance of enhancing this rapidly growing legal segment.
