After 25 years at Eversheds, Adrian Bland will be moving to Wragge & Co’s Birmingham office.
Adrian will be working closely with another of Wragge’s recent recruits, Gerald Bland, who joined last summer as the firm’s national chairman.
Senior partner elect, Quentin Poole said: “He is unquestionably a real prize and will be a very valuable asset. His exceptional leadership and business skills will be very important to the long-term success of the group. Adrian and Gerald will make an effective leadership and management team.”
Adrian commented: “Eversheds is a superb firm and one in which I’ve invested 25 years of my life. Of course I am sorry to leave and I have many friends there. But, I leave knowing it’s in great hands and in great shape. Wragge & Co is a firm I have enjoyed competing with for many years, I like the firm’s approach to its people, its clients and the community.”
His starting date at Wragge & Co has yet to be confirmed.
