The family law team at Slater and Gordon has made a new senior appointment to further strengthen its presence in Merseyside, welcoming senior associate, Andrew Ormrod, to the team.

Andrew Ormrod has worked in family law since 2004, adding significant experience to Slater and Gordon’s specialist Liverpool family team.

Andrew, who joins as a senior associate, has 20 years of experience in supporting families through divorce and separation matters, and has particular expertise in cases involving children and child arrangements.

His appointment adds further expertise to Slater and Gordon’s family team, which is already renowned as a go-to in the region.

In addition to its flagship base in Liverpool, the law firm also has an office in Wirral, which is home to a number of its specialist family lawyers – with Andrew’s appointment strengthening its offering across Merseyside even further.

“I am very pleased to join Slater and Gordon, a firm with an excellent track record for its work in family law,” says Andrew, a Resolution Accredited Specialist.

“Throughout the past two decades, I have worked hard for my clients to put their interests first and achieve the best outcome for them. That commitment is shared by the wider family team, which was a key factor in me joining”.

Georgina Chase, head of family law at Slater and Gordon, adds: “We are delighted to welcome Andrew to the team, a lawyer who is well known for his legal capability and client commitment. He is a key name in family law across Merseyside and, over the course of the past 20 years, has earned the reputation he has today.

“We look forward to working with Andrew to support even more clients, and to add further to the esteem in which Slater and Gordon is held regionally and nationally in family law.”
