Two legal professionals are celebrating after they raised the bar on their career prospects.
John French (43), of Coventry-based solicitors Band Hatton, has been made an associate at the firm just six years after joining the firm.
In addition, Keri Tucker (24) has been made a trainee legal executive after initially joining the firm as a receptionist six years ago before achieving the necessary qualifications through the Chartered Institute of Legal Executives.
Band Hatton employs 35 staff and is one of the longest-established legal practices in the city having been founded in 1896.
The firm offers a diverse range of expertise from commercial and residential property to employment and debt recovery services.
Mark Moseley, practice director at Band Hatton, said: “We have a long and proud tradition of helping our employees to develop their skills and progress within the firm.
“The progress of John and Keri underlines our commitment to the professional development of our employees and we are sure they will continue to flourish under the guidance of the practice.
“By striving to help our employees achieve the highest possible standards we are, in turn, able to offer the highest possible level of service to our clients an attribute we have built a proud reputation on.”
