Chambers UK has almost doubled the number of lawyers listed as ‘leaders in their field’ at Debenhams Ottaway and recognised the firm in two new practice areas this year.
Well known for its private client, family, property and planning teams, Chambers has recognised the ongoing investment Debenhams Ottaway has made in its legal services to businesses, listing commercial litigation and employment for the first time in the 2015 edition. The firm advises some of Hertfordshire’s largest businesses as well as its leading entrepreneurs.
Recognised lawyers in the 2015 edition are:
Louise Attrup, employment
Ruth Boulton, real estate
Jonathan Foy, real estate
Susan Glenholme, private client
Luke Harrison, litigation
Bernadette Hillman, planning
Louise Worton, litigation
Helen Young, family
Chief Executive Ian Hopkins comments “Recognition in Chambers reinforces the high level of knowledge, expertise and client care our lawyers provide. Our private client, family, property and planning teams have led the way in gaining recognition. The inclusion this year of Louise Attrup, Luke Harrison and Louise Worton is well deserved for their energy and imagination in building up a first class business client base and reputation.“
