We asked Jacob, what attracted you to Glenville Walker?

Having been welcomed into Glenville Walker as a trainee solicitor and qualified as a solicitor into the firm’s expert corporate team, I have been inspired by my Head of Department, Denise Walker, and my colleagues to deliver legal advice that truly supports our clients’ success.”

Jacob’s goal for the future is to strengthen his collaborations with clients and colleagues. He believes this will be possible through the firm’s commitment to providing personalised support tailored to each client’s unique needs.
