One of the top law firms in the North-West has been acquired by Hugh James. Potter Rees Dolan is a clinical negligence and personal injury firm, which was recognised in The Times’ Top 200 UK law firms. Its new owner is similarly acclaimed, with Hugh James being ranked as one of the top 100 UK law firms.

Potter Rees Dolan is a national catastrophic personal injury and clinical negligence practice, with strong Court of Protection and Welfare Benefits departments. In the past year, it has secured settlements worth more than £125 million for its clients. The firm employs more than 65 staff, including 9 Partners. Beyond its recognition from The Times, it has also been named as one of the best law firms in the North-West by The Legal 500 and the Chambers Guide.

This latest investment is a significant move for Hugh James. Expansion into the North-West was identified in the firm’s strategy 5 years ago. Since then, the Welsh-headquartered firm has rolled out a series of transformation plans, expanding its London presence through new hires; opening offices in Southampton and Plymouth; and reconfiguring its award-winning Cardiff HQ following the introduction of ‘hybrid-working.’ Expanding its presence across the north of England is the next step for the firm, as it seeks to extend the depth and breadth of its expertise to support growing client demand.

Potter Rees Dolan identified Hugh James as the ideal successor-firm which would present PRD’s Manchester offices as part of a national practice. Hugh Potter and Helen Dolan were keen to secure new owners who shared their vision and values and who would continue to nurture the business, which was established 24 years ago and has become a market leader with a very strong financial base

Helen and Hugh will continue to lead and manage the office in Manchester, working with the wider Hugh James management team, to ensure a smooth transition and seamless client service.

Commenting on the acquisition, Alun Jones, Managing Partner at Hugh James, said today:

“This is an exciting development for us. Potter Rees Dolan is a well-established and very well-run Manchester firm, employing a great team of people. Our work aligns closely with theirs and together we’ll be able to provide an even better service to clients across England and Wales. It’s an honour that Hugh and Helen have chosen to pass the mantle onto us. They’ve built a very successful business over the years and I look forward to working with them as we enter this new chapter.”

Speaking of the deal, Hugh Potter and Helen Dolan added:

“Hugh James has an excellent reputation. We share the same commitment to placing client care front and centre and we are confident we have also secured a really bright future for our staff. What stood out for us was that, while Hugh James is an ambitious business, it remains firmly rooted in community. We’ve been impressed by the approach the Partnership has taken in carefully building its London presence and we are confident that the same will be applied to develop the business in Manchester.”

For now, Potter Rees Dolan will continue to exist with its own refreshed brand, to allow for a longer-term progression into the Hugh James identity. Over time, new departments will be introduced into the Manchester office, from across the firm’s Private Client and Business Service areas of work.

    La acción de Sweet Bonanza 1000 transcurre en seis carretes, de cinco filas cada uno. El juego usa la mecánica de Scatter Pay (pago por símbolos de dispersión) que Pragmatic Play popularizó en juegos como Gates of Olympus y Starlight Princess. Sí, por supuesto, puedes retirar dinero si tienes todo lo necesario, y depende de cómo hayas depositado. Ningún casino está manipulado, todo va por algoritmo y, por supuesto, suerte, jaja, si ganas una vez, ganarás una y otra vez. Viene de a tres. y luego dice el refrán que el dinero sigue al dinero.

    ♠ Dragon is the same as Tiger. Finally, it is important to note that the value of the cards in Dragon Tiger are similar to other games. For instance, the numeric cards have the value as indicated. The Ace is worth one point and the Jack, Queen and King are highest on the other side. With that information at your disposal, you are ready to play Dragon Tiger. Recall the point that our dealer from dragon-tiger.in deals with one card from the standard deck face up and the highest card wins. If a match happens, it’s a draw. If you created a bet on Dragon or Tiger and one of the ones you bet on fell out, you get a 1: 1 payout. If you happen to bet on a draw and win, you can collect your payout 11:1. If you lose, you lose your bet, and if you only support the dragon or tiger in a draw, you get half your bet back.
