Brachers, a law firm with offices in Maidstone and Canterbury, has made 15 promotions across the firm, including the promotion of four team members to partner.

The four employees promoted to partner were: Sophie Read in family, Sarah Mannooch in private client, Sara Smith in residential conveyancing, and Paul Abdey in commercial litigation.

Three lawyers have been elevated to senior associate: Abigail Brightwell in employment, Emma Hegarty in private client, and Helen Stonham in commercial property. Two lawyers, Rebecca Gunningham in family and Angela Jarvis in private client, have been promoted to associate.  

Alongside this, Natalie Skinner in family has been promoted to legal assistant, Deborah Sherry in private client has been promoted to senior paralegal, and Karen Goss in residential conveyancing has been promoted to paralegal.  

Two staff members in debt recovery, Georgia Serrecchia and Lee Whitehead, have been promoted to senior customer executive. Finally, Matt Foster has been promoted to building services manager.  

Managing partner Joanna Worby said: “Supporting colleagues to develop and progress in their career is something we are passionate about at Brachers.
