15 March 2010
Switalskis Solicitors will end the current financial year on a high after setting plans in motion to achieve 33 per cent growth in twelve months.
Switalskis, which has twice been named Yorkshire Law Firm of the Year, secured £1m funding from Royal Bank of Scotland last October.

Since then, the firm has recruited almost 30 staff, including a medical negligence team of six from Barnsley-based firm, Raleys. The new department is based in Wakefield and will provide services across Yorkshire and Humberside.
Jim Gladman, the Head of the new medical negligence department, said: "The move to Switalskis has been a positive one for us. We are delighted to be part of a forward-thinking, award winning team, and look forward to making a real contribution to the firm's growth".
Switalskis Managing Partner, John Durkan, said: "Jim Gladman and his team have an excellent reputation in the field of Medical Negligence work. The new department is already proving an asset to the firm. The addition of this and other new services means that now, more than ever, Switalskis clients can find all the help and advice they need under one roof - something that is central to our plans for growth throughout the coming year."
Since January, Switalskis has also added residential conveyancing and employment law to its range of services, and now has specialists in 15 different areas of law across West Yorkshire.
