Promotion to partner for Manchester solicitor

Specialist serious and catastrophic injury solicitor, Leanne Tattam has been promoted to Partner by legal firm, Birchall Blackburn Law.

Leanne joined Birchall Blackburn Law in January 2018 and is based in the firm’s Manchester office in Kennedy Street. She is a senior member of the firm’s specialist serious and catastrophic injury team, which is skilled in head and spinal injury civil compensation claims.

Leanne, aged 37 and from Alderley Edge says: “I’m over-the-moon to be promoted to Partner after years of hard work. During my training I was fortunate to work with Partners who specialised in brain injury cases.

“They showed me that I would find serious and catastrophic injury cases to be the most rewarding work because I saw how reassuring to the client the solicitor dealing with the case could be.

“I soon realised I could improve people’s lives and provide vital help and support during what was a very confusing and difficult time adapting to a life that would never be the same again.”

Despite a teenage ambition to be a lawyer, Leanne read Biology at the University of Manchester before undertaking a graduate diploma in Law.

Birchall Blackburn Law has offices across the North West in Manchester, Preston, Southport, Chester, Chorley, Leyland and Morecambe. The firm employs over 310 staff across a broad range of legal services.
