Belinda Walters has been named as commercial and technology partner at Moore Barlow.

Moore Barlow hired the former Gardner Leader Solicitors employee due to her specialism in commercial matters, contract law, intellectual property, IT and data protection.

With almost 500 employees Moore Barlow have a presence in Southampton, Guildford, Woking and Lymington and London.

Belinda joins a five-strong commercial and technology team based in Southampton, where she will also support Moore Barlow’s corporate team.

The commercial and technology team at Moore Barlow advises business owners on a broad range of legal and regulatory requirements to develop their business and protect their organisations from legal and commercial risks.

John Warchus, commercial and technology partner at Moore Barlow, said of the appointment: “Belinda has a wealth of experience in commercial matters, a commitment to building longstanding client relationships and her arrival adds real strength and depth to our national team. It’s a pleasure to have her on board and this appointment demonstrates our commitment to supporting high growth, ambitious businesses across the South East and to continue our growth as a firm.”

Belinda told TBM: “Moore Barlow is an exciting firm with a growing reputation, and it’s a pleasure to be joining such a strong team. The commercial needs of businesses in their “business as usual” activities can often be complex and are always varied, and the team at Moore Barlow is known for cutting through the jargon to provide a consistent, high-quality service to all its clients.

“For me this is really important as we need to help businesses to navigate the challenges they face in a pragmatic and accessible way, as only then do we establish a reputation as trusted advisors. I’m really delighted to be getting started.”
