The partners in the property and construction team at Hill Dickinson, myself included, will ensure that my clients are provided with the best possible service and I am extremely pleased to have been appointed.”

Mike Blakey, head of the Manchester property team at Hill Dickinson, added: “It is encouraging, in the current climate, to experience more expansion within the property and construction practice group. Jonathan brings a wealth of experience to his new role at Hill Dickinson, as well as an impressive client base. Our property and construction team is highly respected within the sector and Jonathan’s appointment will undoubtedly strengthen this position still further.”
