Manchester law firm Kuits has promoted two of its most promising lawyers, welcoming one into its partnership.
Commercial and intellectual property specialist Caroline Brennan becomes the firm’s 32nd partner.
Caroline, who joined from Shoosmiths in 2018, has helped Kuits grow a key service offering in providing an outsourced support function for in-house legal teams, in addition to a number of other sector specialisms such as non-contentious IP and sport.
Sam Jackson, a lawyer in the banking and real estate finance team, has been promoted to associate after two years at Kuits. Sam advises mainstream, bridging and private lenders on their financing provisions in the real estate sector, including bespoke loan security documentation.
Managing partner Steve Eccleston said: “It’s extremely pleasing to be able to recognise the achievements of Caroline and Sam and reward their commitment to the firm and its clients. Most recently, they have both done an incredible job in supporting North West businesses through this extremely pressured time.
“Both have demonstrated values we believe are crucial to the success of the firm: commerciality, collaboration with others to provide a comprehensive and joined-up advisory service, and the ability to forge strong connections to add value to our client relationships.”
