Gordons appoints new corporate solicitor

Gordons has expanded with the appointment of a new solicitor, Jessica Cumming.

Jessica, has particular experience in the education, charities, public and private sectors and will support partner Andy Brian in the continued growth of Gordons’ commercial contracts practice and partner Philip Paget in the development of an education team.

Speaking on her appointment Jessica commented: “Gordons has an excellent reputation for delivering practical, results-focused advice and when presented with the opportunity to join the team my decision was simple. The firm has a distinct approach to delivering legal services, which sets it apart, and it is respected both regionally and nationally.

Joining the firm from legal practice Wrigleys Solicitors, where she worked as a commercial solicitor for two and half years and before this as a commercial solicitor at Walker Morris, Jessica brings with her a working knowledge of commercial contracts, governance and regulatory issues.

Andy Brian, Gordons partner, said: “Jessica brings with her a wealth of experience and I am very pleased to be welcoming her to the firm. The expansion of the team is further evidence of our commitment to further growing and developing our commercial practice.

“Jessica’s ability to forge good client relationships quickly, and assimilate seamlessly into the team is invaluable in such a fast moving area, and I’m confident that she will play a vital role in our future success.“
