No limit to Berwins

Harrogate firms Berwins and Myers & Co are merging to create a seven-partner practice under the Berwins name which will operate as a limited liability partnership.

Managing partner Paul Berwin said he first made overtures to two-partner Myers & Co three years ago, 'but now is the right time for us all'.

The merged firm now has commercial, property, family, private client, agricultural and litigation departments.

Berwins has family links with the two London Berwin practices -SJ Berwin and Berwin Leighton Paisner.
