DISPUTE RESOLUTION PARTNER JOINS KNIGHTS IN MANCHESTER

One of the North West’s leading Dispute Resolution lawyers has moved across Manchester to join Knights as a Partner.

Alison Rocca brings more than 16 years’ experience to Knights – and a reputation as a dispute resolution specialist with experience of several high-profile, high-value cases.

She has vast commercial experience specialising in shareholder disputes, complex injunctions and associated investigations and probate and inheritance claims.

Alison Rocca, Partner at Knights, said:

“I am really excited to be joining Knights’ growing team. They have a great disputes team across the North West and I am looking forward to working with them.

“I’m also keen to work with Knights’ national team, and to learn from their experience.

“I have already experienced the fantastic culture across the Knights’ business and am looking forward to contributing further to that.”

Alison’s arrival follows a wave of promotions among Knights’ growing team of professionals in Manchester, and across the North West, last month.

Lisa Shacklock, Client Services Director at Knights, said:

“There’s a real buzz around our teams in Manchester and Wilmslow at the moment, and Alison’s arrival will only elevate that.

“Alison adds great experience to the team here in the North West, and boosts our national team of Dispute Resolution lawyers across the country. We’re really pleased she’s joining us.”

Knights is one of the fastest-growing legal and professional services businesses in the UK – ranked within the top 50 UK law firms by revenue, with specialists in all key areas of corporate and commercial law.

The appointment of Alison Rocca in Manchester supports Knights’ focus on key markets outside London.
