Greenwoods hires Tom Holbrook from DLA Piper UK LLP
Greenwoods Solicitors, the leading insurance law practice, announces that Tom Holbrook has joined the firm as Partner. He was previously at the international law firm, DLA Piper UK LLP, where he had spent 15 years dealing with defendant personal injury claims and policy advice.
In addition to wide ranging experience in handling motor, employers’ and public liability claims, including catastrophic personal injury, stress, harassment and abuse, Tom is also a trained mediator.
Tom specialises in advising a number of police forces on wide ranging policy issues and in malfeasance and other claims. He will be based at Greenwoods’ Manchester office, which opened in late 2007 with two solicitors and now employs 14.
Commenting on the news, Greenwoods’ Senior Partner Paul Parsons said:
“Tom’s arrival further strengthens our Manchester office which has grown rapidly in a very short period of time. Tom has first class credentials and his work for a number of police forces as well as raising policy and best practice issues with Association of Chief Police Officers, has helped him gain a formidable reputation.
“This appointment consolidates Greenwoods’ position as a leading defendant personal injury firm in the country”.
Greenwoods is recognised in both Chambers and the Legal 500 as one of the country’s leading insurance litigation firms.
