Prosperity Law has acquired Carrick Read, Leeds.
Headed up by Andrew Laycock, Carrick Read has provided Insolvency Law advice, corporate and commercial legal services, commercial litigation services and volume debt recovery services for over 23 years.
Ed Smethurst, managing partner at Prosperity Law, said: “Acquiring Carrick Read was a perfect opportunity for us. We have always respected the firm as a long-established and reputable practice with aligned values and business practices to our own.
“Both companies have a strong reputation in the North West – we know the challenges and opportunities faced by the local market and this acquisition ensures we can continue to grow and offer great service and advice to all our clients. We extend a very warm welcome to the new clients joining us, as well as the team at Carrick Read and look forward to a great future together.”
Andrew Laycock, principal at Carrick Read, said: “The acquisition will enable us to provide a wider base of services than previously and also increase the geographical reach of the extended firm. It will also provide us with a greater depth of resources in ongoing work. We’ve chosen to join forces with Prosperity Law both because of their similar approach to client service but also a collegiate approach to the provision of legal services.”
Prosperity Law has offices in Manchester, Liverpool and London.
