LAW firm Sintons has appointed three new associates.
Chris Patton began his career at the Newcastle firm as a trainee solicitor in 2003.
Having gained experience across a wide range of legal issues, he now specialises in personal injury, dealing with high-value cases in asbestos and industrial disease in the North-East and nationally.
Alok Loomba, who joined Sintons from Hay and Kilner 18 months ago, is a commercial property lawyer who specialises in the leisure and healthcare sectors. Part of the firm’s commercial property department, he recently advised on the property aspects of the recent £10m refinancing of care home operator Ladhar Group.
Personal injury specialist Kate Jenkins has been with Sintons for just over a year, having joined from Austin Sanders, in Darlington.
Jim Dias, chairman of Sintons, said: “It always give me great pleasure to see talented people thrive here.
“We nurture people and have high aspirations of them. I’m proud of Kate, Chris and Alok, and wish them every success.”
