Law firms join forces

North Derbyshire law firm Banner Jones has moved into Sheffield, joining forces with Cotton and Co.

The expansion follows Banner Jones’ recent merger with Glossops Solicitors.

Banner Jones partner Simon Wright said: “We will now be an 18-partner practice with over 120 staff based across seven sites in North Derbyshire and South Yorkshire.”

The new firm will be known in Sheffield as Banner Jones with Cotton and Co and will continue to operate from Bells Square in the city centre.
