North East law firm EMG Solicitors has expanded outside its heartland to open a third office in Cumbria.
The company, which has bases in Durham and Gosforth, has opened a new office in Penrith on the back of a rise in revenue. The growing firm, which specialises in court of protection, wills, trusts and probate, family, employment, residential conveyancing and commercial property services, says it has increased turnover 28% from £3.4m to £4.3m, while also recruiting 23 new staff members in the last year, taking its total workforce to 103.
Emma Gaudern, managing director of EMG Solicitors, said the opening of the new branch is testament to the firm’s continuing growth. The Penrith office will be led by Samantha Edward, alongside a team of property and family lawyers.
