Cozens-Hardy LLP is pleased to announce that Jane Anderson has been chosen as the firm’s new Senior Partner.
Mrs Anderson takes over the role from Chris Groves who is standing down as Senior Partner, in preparation for his retirement within the next 12 months.
Mr Groves commented:
“I consider myself fortunate to have held the role of Senior Partner at Cozens-Hardy. It has not been an onerous position, because the firm is so well managed by the Managing Partner, Simon Whipp and I have enjoyed the support of my colleagues and long standing clients of the firm. I am delighted that Jane has been chosen as the new Senior Partner, as she has the leadership qualities to drive the firm forward and improve on the high levels of client satisfaction already achieved. She is also a great grand-daughter of the founder of the firm, Sydney Cozens-Hardy so it seems wholly appropriate that Jane should take over my mantle.”
Mrs Anderson, who is one of three partners in the firm’s successful Family department, said:
“Chris is going to be a very difficult act to follow. He is universally popular and despite managing a huge caseload he always has time for everyone in the office, and is unfailingly cheerful. We thought hard about the role of the Senior Partner for the future and it is a testament to Chris’ success in the role that we unanimously agreed to replace him. I am very pleased to accept the challenge and hope to maintain his enthusiasm and energy for the firm in the future.”
