Russell Brown becomes managing partner, steering growth & strategy at Glaisyers ETL, a law firm

In a significant announcement, Glaisyers ETL, a prominent law firm headquartered in Manchester, unveiled the appointment of Russell Brown as its new managing partner. 

Mr. Brown, who previously served as the head of the firm's acclaimed Legal 500-listed employment practice, will now collaborate closely with David Jones, the executive partner at Glaisyers ETL. Together, they will shoulder the responsibilities of steering the firm's course, both strategically and operationally.

Having commenced his legal career at Glaisyers and qualifying as a solicitor in 2000, Mr. Brown's journey with the firm has been enduring. His ascent to partnership in 2006 underscores his commitment and contribution to the organization's growth and success.

Expressing his thoughts on this new responsibility, Mr. Brown remarked, "Since affiliating with the ETL GLOBAL network five years ago, our firm has fortified its standing in the legal market, particularly in delivering expert counsel to independent and mid-market businesses and their stakeholders. Building upon recent successes, I eagerly anticipate collaborating with David to bring forth numerous upcoming initiatives while guiding our exceptional team to continue delivering outstanding client outcomes."

Glaisyers ETL witnessed significant milestones in the past year, including the launch of a digital, media, and marketing practice under the leadership of partner Steve Kuncewicz. Additionally, the firm expanded its reach by inaugurating its maiden office in Liverpool, led by corporate partner Adrian Rogers. The relocation from St James’s Square to new premises at 3 Hardman Street in Manchester’s Spinningfields business district further underscored the firm's growth trajectory.

Reflecting on the firm's trajectory, David Jones conveyed, "Last year was marked by both expansion and moments of sorrow following the loss of our managing partner, Dave Marlor. Russell demonstrated remarkable leadership during both highs and lows. I am delighted to formalize his role and eagerly anticipate our collaboration in the years to come."

Russell Brown's appointment signifies not only a continuation of Glaisyers ETL's legacy but also a promising step towards its future as a leader in providing legal expertise and exceptional client service. His wealth of experience and dedication positions the firm for continued success and growth in the dynamic legal landscape.
