Bradford-founded solicitors Eatons has appointed Property and Business Partner Joad Singh to its commercial property team.
Working out of the firm’s recently opened “Airport West” offices in Yeadon, Joad joins the team of 50 established lawyers based in Bradford and Bingley, to further develop the commercial and residential property team as well as the business division.
Specialising in commercial property, business acquisitions and disposals, Joad has more than 15 years of legal experience, including a decade as partner with Shipley’s Atkinson & Firth. He joins Eatons’ Property Partners Claire Roberts and David Butterfield to continue to develop the firm’s specialist offering.
Joad said: “This is a challenging time for the commercial sector and with any transactional work comes a need for savvy business advice and guidance. I pride myself on working in partnership with our clients, all of whom have their own personal circumstances at the heart of their brief – a past to protect and a future to build.
“I’m delighted to join such an established and respected legal team and I’m focussed on continuing to develop a service which has property and business expertise, client confidence and compassion at its core.”
Eatons Solicitors’ Darley Street offices were established in 1887. Today the team specialises in services from family and matrimonial law to commercial property and employment matters and prides itself on having 25% of staff serving 10 years or more, alongside its dedication to supporting the next generation of trainee solicitors.
Managing Partner Graeme Brown added: “We employ the very best in our industry and we’re absolutely delighted to welcome Joad into the team. “People first” is the Eatons culture and that applies to our staff and the clients we work with. Joad embraces and embodies all that we represent and we’re looking forward to his leadership in the continued expansion of our property and business division.”
