Sintons said the deal for Cumbria Employment Solicitors would extend its reach across the North and represented both an extension of its geographical footprint and investment in what it called “heavyweight legal talent”

Cumbria Employment Solicitors has been established for more than 15 years and its linkup with Sintons will allow it to add more legal services for its clients. Michael Bauer and his team will be fully integrated into the Sintons’ employment team.
