Good morning, good afternoon, good evening to all out readers.
How are you all?
This year is already flying by. This month we have been joined by Almaas and Lizzy. Almaas is assisting as part of our reception team and Lizzy is assisting Dan in our litigation department. I believe that they are both enjoying their introduction to the firm and to our clients and I am sure they will also be looking forward to meeting you and helping in any way they can.
As always, if anything in this newsletter is of interest or raises any questions or concerns then please just get in touch. You can e mail us (info@LFBBSolicitors.co.uk), ring us (0114 272 9721) or check our website .
We are always on the look out for local businesses to support or give a shout to, so if there is anyone you would like to see featured here then please let us know. We have hopefully got a couple of businesses lined up for the coming months so watch this space.
We look forward to hearing from you.
If you are seeking peace of mind, we are here to help.
