Higgs & Sons, which already has one of the largest family
teams in the West Midlands, is expanding even further with the
appointment of Victoria Fellows.
Victoria, who joins the firm as an assistant solicitor, brings a
wealth of experience having been in family law for over five years.
She qualified at Atter McKenzie in Evesham and then joined Irwin
Mitchell in Birmingham for four years and has been at Sharratts
Family Law in Wolverhampton, for the past year.
The appointment comes at the same time as Philip Barnsley takes
up the headship of the department from Steven Jackson. Philip said:
"Victoria has a very impressive background and will further
strengthen our team. She adds another dimension to our diverse
team, which can only be seen as a positive thing by
clients.
"I am really excited about the coming year as the team is
growing rapidly and we possess a range of strengths and experience
which, when put together, forms an impressive portfolio for our
clients."
Victoria said: "My move to Higgs will enable me to utilise my
experience as part of a growing department and I am thrilled to be
working for one of the leading firms in the West Midlands .
Philip continues: "We have also taken on Rhian Jervis who is a
newly qualified solicitor. She brings fresh ideas to the team and
will be an additional support to clients and us. The coming months
will be very exciting for the firm as we move to our new office at
3 The Waterfront. Our ambition is to grow our department even
further in this new state-of-the-art environment."
Steven Jackson remains with the firm as a specialist consultant
in the team.
