Canterbury and Maidstone based law firm Brachers has hired partner Joshua Williams to its private client team and partner Dan King to its corporate and commercial team.

Williams, who joins Brachers from Furley Page, has over 14 years' experience advising private clients on wills, probate, wealth planning and estate administration. 

He commented: 'Brachers has an outstanding reputation for its private client practice – and in particular its private wealth offering – being ranked in the top tier of the Legal 500 directory and highly rated in the Chambers High Net Worth Guide for private wealth law. I look forward to developing our private client offering and serving clients from across the county and beyond.'

Private client head Christopher Eriksson-Lee added: 'We are delighted to welcome Josh who has built up a tremendous reputation in East Kent. Josh is highly regarded for his personable approach while offering clients pragmatic advice that best meets their interests and objectives. He is a fantastic addition to Brachers.'

King trained with Brachers and qualified into the corporate law team, before joining a London firm where he honed his experience in M&A work. He joins Brachers from BDB Pitmans and will be based at the firm’s Maidstone headquarters.

King said: 'I am delighted to return to Brachers as a corporate partner. The team has gone from strength to strength, winning multiple awards for dealmaking and forging long-lasting relationships with clients.'

Brachers’ corporate and commercial head James Bullock commented: 'It’s a real pleasure to welcome Dan back into the Brachers family. He is an outstanding corporate lawyer whose expertise and client care are renowned within the field. Our clients will benefit from Dan’s vast experience across all transaction types from M&A, management buyouts (MBOs) and private equity deals, to joint ventures, shareholder arrangements and restructuring. He is a real asset to the team.'
