National law firm, Stephensons Solicitors LLP, has appointed a new department manager of their Altrincham family team.
Paul Webb, an associate solicitor, has been promoted to the role and will now take the lead for managing, expanding and developing the firm’s Family team in Altrincham, which moved into larger offices at Grosvenor House earlier this year.
After graduating from University and completed the legal practice course, Paul joined Stephensons in 2002 and qualified as a solicitor nine years ago. As a family law solicitor, he has gained many years of experience in acting for local authorities, parents and children in complex cases including care proceedings, residence and contact disputes and adoption proceedings.
Paul, from Stockport, said: “I am very much looking forward to the opportunities and challenges ahead and to achieving the continued growth and development of the team. We are committed helping any member of the local community with any family law issues that may arise in respect of themselves or their families."
Mike Devlin, managing partner of the Family team, said: "I would like to congratulate Paul on his new position. We are delighted to have such an able and enthusiastic person as Paul in place as department manager.”
Stephensons is committed to providing access to justice for all and works with local organisations to provide outreach to people who need legal services. This includes free drop-in sessions at the Broomwood Community Wellbeing Centre each Tuesday and Friday from 9:30am to 12pm. Similar sessions are also held at Partington Community Wellbeing Centre on Monday between 12:30- 5pm and Wednesday and Thursday 9am- 12:30pm.
