CHILDCARE specialist Anna Bridson has joined law firm Wilkinson Woodward in Huddersfield as a consultant solicitor.

Ms Bridson, pictured (above) with Wilkinson Woodward managing partner Maureen Cawthorn, has more than 14 years’ experience in private and local authority family and care law.

Wilkinson Woodward managing partner Maureen Cawthorn said: “Whilst our practice is over 100 years old, it is important for us to provide a fresh and progressive service to all of our clients throughout Kirklees and Calderdale and beyond. To recruit a solicitor of Anna’s calibre is therefore a vital part of our continued yet considered expansion strategy.”
