David Towns, head of Muckle LLP's Agriculture, Estates and Private Client team, said: "These strategic, senior hires demonstrate our increasing commitment and success in dealing with some of the most complex estates and succession planning legal work. I am delighted that we achieved 72% growth over the last 12 months, which testifies to our personable yet expert approach and enables us to invest in further growth.
