North West law firm SAS Daniels LLP has strengthened its family law team with the appointment of Nicola McInnes as an associate solicitor.
 
Nicola has joined SAS Daniels following 16 years at Gruber Garratt in Oldham. She specialises in family law and is a member of Resolution, Child Concern and the Solicitor’s Regulation Authority’s Children Panel - organisations which promote best practise in this area. She will be based at the firm’s Macclesfield office.
 
Commenting on her new role, Nicola said: “I have long been impressed with SAS Daniels’ growth and stability. The firm has a reputation throughout the region as a forward-thinking firm with innovative ideas and practices – areas which are particularly important in the face of the major legislation changes coming to pass this year.”
 
Nicola’s appointment is the latest in a series of senior hires made by the firm, including real estate partner Nigel Read, property lawyer Andrew Clark, agriculture specialist Graham Gigg and litigation consultant Peter Moore.
 
The firm has also recently expanded its HR offering to clients with the appointment of Chris Swerling – a specialist in a whole range of the day-to-day HR needs of businesses from recruitment and selection, through to redundancy or dismissal.
 
Shelley Hesford, head of the family law team at SAS Daniels, said: “The basis of a great law firm is having great staff and we aim to recruit people of the highest calibre. Nicola is an experienced lawyer with a fantastic reputation and we are delighted to welcome her to the team.”
 
Headquartered in Stockport, SAS Daniels is organised across five practice groups: corporate, real estate, litigation, employment and private client. The firm is rated amongst the best in the region by Chambers and the Legal 500 – the two leading client guides to the UK legal profession.
