Lovetts grows litigation team as demand for legal advice jumps
Cassandra McCarthy joins the Commercial Litigation team
Lovetts Plc, the debt recovery law firm has seen demand for its subscription based legal advice service jump significantly in 2014 compared to 2013. With demand set to grow further as the recovery continues and as other law firms withdraw legal advice services for SMEs*, Lovetts has expanded its team of solicitors with the appointment of Cassandra McCarthy as a solicitor in the Commercial Litigation team. Reporting to Michael Higgins, Operations Director, Cassandra brings extensive commercial litigation knowledge to the team and will harness her expertise to get the best results for Lovetts’ clients. Lovetts offers unlimited advice agreements on disputed debts to allow businesses of all sizes, from micro SMEs to the FTSE 100, easy access to a solicitor without worrying about the clock ticking and fees increasing at the early advice-stage of a case.
Prior to joining Lovetts, Cassandra was Associate Solicitor of Commercial Disputes at Rawlison Butler LLP, and has also held the position of Solicitor in Civil & Commercial Litigation at Morrison’s Solicitors LLP. Cassandra has conducted proceedings for high profile clients with high value claims, where she was responsible for settlement negotiations and drafting settlement agreements.
Cassandra McCarthy comments, “This a great opportunity to join a law firm with a strong track record and a reputation for innovation and high levels of client service – but most importantly, one that is solely focused on recovering commercial debt. This field is really where I have focused my career to date and I look forward to achieving the right results for Lovetts’ growing client base.”
Michael Higgins, Operations Director adds, “Lovetts prides itself on delivering the very best service to all clients regardless of size – the demand is there as increasing numbers of clients are signing up to our legal advice service and Cassandra will play a key role in helping us to deliver this valuable service.
“Cassandra brings a variety and depth of experience in commercial disputes, making her a key addition to our already strong team. She also shares our focus on getting the best results, quickly and affordably. Cassandra understands the Lovetts ethos, which places service quality and client care at the heart of the business, driving our success and ongoing expansion.”
