Burnett joined Lake Legal in 2017 and became an associate in 2021. Over the past eight years, she has developed wide-ranging expertise, from handling complex financial settlements for high-net-worth individuals to advising on cohabitation disputes, domestic violence cases, nuptial agreements and child-related matters.
Hollie said: “It’s hugely rewarding to see my hard work over the years recognised with a promotion to partner at Lake Legal. It has been a privilege to grow my career within such a supportive and forward-thinking firm, and I am very proud to be part of such an outstanding team. I look forward to continuing to play a key role within a firm which provides outstanding legal advice and service to all our clients, strengthened further by our new mediation offering.”
Lake Legal, which has been consistently ranked in the top tier by both Chambers & Partners and The Legal 500, is widely recognised as one of the region’s leading boutique family law firms.
Managing partner Claire Glaister added: “After achieving our highest ever annual turnover, it is exciting to see how else we can progress as a firm. By strengthening the team at a management level and adding a new string to our bow in the form of mediation, we are undoubtedly going from strength to strength. Hollie is a huge asset to the business, and her promotion reflects both her ability and her commitment to clients.”
