Russell & Russell has appointed two new solicitors to its family department.

Donna Leigh (pictured) will work from the firm’s head office on Wood Street in Bolton town centre. She has over a decade of experience dealing with high net worth finance cases, cohabitation issues, divorce and dissolution of civil partnerships, domestic violence and children matters.

With over 25 years of experience, Hilary Farren has also joined the firm, working from our Bury office. She will provide private client advice on divorce, finances, cohabitation, injunctions and children matters. In addition, she will be running a free family law clinic every Wednesday from 1.00-4.00pm at the firm’s office on Manchester Road in the town centre. 

“Both Donna and Hilary have a wealth of knowledge in private family law and their experience will add strength and depth to the team”, said Amanda Connor, head of Russell & Russell’s family department. “We’ve undergone a significant upturn in business over the last 12 months, so their expertise will lend itself to servicing our growing private client base and complement our social care team.”
