North West law firm Jackson Lees has expanded its wills, trusts and probate team with the appointment of two new solicitors.
The appointments come as the business looks to grow the practice area, increasing its offering and bolstering the team.
Barry McDonough was appointed as team head and solicitor following six years at Hill Dickinson, dealing with wills, trusts, estates and succession planning for high net worth individuals.
Joining McDonough on the team is Rafael Donovan, who was appointed following two and a half years at MSB Solicitors, where he dealt with wills, trusts, probate and powers of attorney.
Barry McDonough said: “Since February I’ve settled into my role within the team, and I’m astounded by the level of support from the top, right the way down. In the short amount of time I’ve been at Jackson Lees, I’ve had the opportunity to meet so many people both within my team and in the larger group.
“As a team we’ve got an incredible support network for new and existing colleagues, so we’re all very much looking forward to working together and growing the wills, trusts and probate offering.”
Rafael Donovan said: “It’s been incredible settling in to such a dynamic team and I’m thrilled to be part of the wider group.
“Since starting, I’ve thoroughly enjoyed the onboarding process and working with such a great support network. I’m looking forward to watching the team take shape and flourish.”
