Trethowans has appointed a specialist Technology Partner to compliment its extensive business law team in the South of England.
Julian Hamblin joins Trethowans from Womble Bond Dickinson. He has more than 30 years’ experience and is one of very few legal practitioners in the region to specialise in IT and technology law.
Julian joins one of the most comprehensive corporate and commercial teams in its region; the team is comprised of 18 corporate, commercial and banking lawyers, each a specialist in their own field.
Julian said: “I’m pleased to be able to introduce a technology specialism to Trethowans. The South is really starting to lead the way as a technological hub. We have exciting, innovative and fast growing technology companies here, who we can support. In addition, as most commerce today is heavily dependent on technology, we help all sorts of companies to acquire and successfully deploy technology in their business.”
Mike Watson, Partner and Head of Corporate said: “Julian is just the latest excellent addition to our Team. Employing true specialists in each area of banking, corporate and commercial contracts, the Corporate Team at Trethowans has grown substantially in the last three years. The addition of Julian’s expertise in technology gives us that essential additional skill-set that most other firms in the region don’t have on offer.”
Trethowans has seen much growth in recent years and now has a team of over 250 staff and 46 partners. The success of Trethowans’ Bournemouth office means it is currently in the process of doubling the size of its office at Space House.
