He specialises in commercial property work and has been involved in a number of large commercial developments both locally and nationally.

“Tilly Bailey & Irvine is a great firm to work at with a fantastic local and national client base,” he said.

“I look forward to continuing to develop and expand our commercial property and agricultural property departments.”

Having practised in family law for more than 25 years, Wendy Beacom has significant expertise in the resolution of financial matters arising from divorce: “It is an exciting time for the firm, and I’m sure that its predecessors would be proud of where we are right now, as the largest full service legal practice in Teesside,” she said.
