Slater Heelis bolsters Dispute Resolution team with new head of department

Law firm Slater Heelis LLP has appointed Elizabeth Wilkinson to head up the Dispute Resolution team as it continues its growth.

Elizabeth has over 20 years’ experience acting for clients in a wide range of commercial contract disputes, professional negligence actions and claims arising from the sale and purchase of businesses. She is recognised as an expert in her field by the prestigious Legal 500.

Elizabeth has spent the majority of career in Manchester at national law firms and advises large corporates and PLCs, SMEs and owner-managed businesses as well as individuals.

Managing partner, Chris Bishop, commented on the appointment: “We are thrilled to welcome Elizabeth to the firm. Her arrival will further strengthen our team and bolster its service offering.

“Elizabeth has a strong and proven track record helping clients pursue their rights and recover monies. Our dispute resolution team has gone from strength to strength over the last 12 months and Elizabeth’s arrival will further cement our commitment to helping clients achieve a successful outcome from a dispute and to reduce the risk of them arising in the first place.”

Elizabeth said: “Slater Heelis has an outstanding reputation among the legal profession and across Greater Manchester. I am excited to head up the Dispute Resolution team and add to the wealth of expertise that is currently on offer, helping clients on a daily basis.”
