Added: (Fri Jun 29 2007)
Burnetts in Carlisle, Cumbria has recruited a new partner into its Personal Injury department.
Nick Gutteridge, 41, has been tempted from a home in the Peak District and a South Manchester law firm by the reputation of his Burnetts� colleagues.
Nick, who has been on the Law Society�s panel of accredited Personal Injury solicitors for over a decade, said, �Head of department Richard Bain is well-known as an imposing litigator and Riekje Sefton has an international reputation for her work with head injured clients. I�m looking forward to working alongside Riekje and Richard and getting the opportunity to further develop my own skills. Personal injury lawyers can make a real difference to our clients� lives�
At Burnetts Nick will be looking after clients who have sustained catastrophic spinal or brain injuries in accidents on the road, at work or elsewhere as well as people with work-related illnesses and other injuries.
Nick joins Burnetts� four-strong Personal Injury team from Gorvins in Stockport where he was also a Partner. Originally from Nottingham, Nick studied law at Hull University. He trained at Stamp, Jackson and Procter before moving to Hamers and then to Manchester�s John Pickering and Partners where he worked almost exclusively on asbestos litigation. He is a member of the Association of Personal Injury Lawyers. A keen fell runner and walker, Nick is married with three young children.
