Morr & Co announces 20 promotions

Leading law firm Morr & Co is commemorating 20 significant promotions as part of its expansion strategy throughout Surrey, Hampshire, and London. Among the senior appointments, Francesca Wild has been elevated to partner in the employment team, while Laura Robson joins her as a partner in residential property. Catherine Fisher, managing partner at Morr & Co, said “Recognising and celebrating the achievements of our people is a hugely important part of our culture at Morr & Co.” She added, “Each one of these individuals has demonstrated real talent, commitment and ambition, and these appointments reflect the valuable contribution they make to our clients and teams.” These changes come at a pivotal moment for the firm, which is launching its new 2026–2029 business plan. The firm is committed to investing in its people, technology, and processes, while nurturing home-grown talent and supporting ambitious long-term growth through strategic new hires.

Francesca Wild, who joined Morr & Co as a Senior Associate in 2018, has been instrumental in the expansion of the employment practice, advising both employers and employees on various contentious and non-contentious employment matters. Francesca shared her enthusiasm, stating “I'm really excited to be joining the partnership of such a fantastic firm with such a fun and collaborative group of people. I'm looking forward to seeing what the future holds.” Laura Robson, who brings extensive experience in the local property market, now heads Morr & Co’s Guildford office. Since qualifying in 2017, she has been involved in numerous residential property transactions, particularly in high-value and prime residential sales and purchases. Laura noted “Morr & Co is a very supportive firm. They are keen for people to progress and provide the right tools, such as the partner pathway scheme. It makes it feel worthwhile once you do achieve that next step because you know you’re ready for it.”

The recent promotions span a variety of practice areas, including employment, dispute resolution, commercial property, private client, Court of Protection, and corporate & commercial, along with several key appointments in the firm’s business services teams. Jemma Durham and Harriet Greener have both been promoted to associate solicitors in dispute resolution. Harriet remarked “I love the supportive culture and the people at Morr & Co. Being able to work closely with colleagues across multiple disciplines and share expertise creates a really positive working environment. Strong collaboration also allows us to deliver the very best outcomes for our clients and supports the development of every member of the firm.” Morr & Co has enjoyed consecutive years of net profit growth over the past three years, and its latest business plan is focused on three strategic priorities: people, process, and productivity.
