Bristol-based law firm Barcan+Kirby has continued to strengthen its corporate and commercial team with the appointment of a new senior associate.

She joins from Wiltshire firm Goughs Solicitors, where she worked as an associate for just over 18 months.
Prior to that she spent four-and-a-half years with regional firm Lyons Bowe Solicitors.
Elsie said: “I have a real interest in corporate and commercial law and am delighted to have joined the team at Barcan+Kirby.
“I joined the firm as I was aware of their excellent reputation as employers but also as being a quality established law firm that I would be proud to work for.”
Barcan+Kirby managing partner Bill Wilcocks added: “We are thrilled to appoint Elsie to the corporate and commercial department and look forward to the continued success and growth of the team.”
Barcan+Kirby supplies a comprehensive range of legal services ranging from corporate & commercial and employment to family and medical negligence from its five offices across Bristol and South Gloucestershire
