Sills & Betteridge Gain Advantage in Sheffield with Rebrand and Relocation

Sills & Betteridge Gain Advantage in Sheffield with Rebrand and Relocation

Sheffield Tigers Rugby Union favourite James Norman, who we are delighted to sponsor for the forthcoming season, recently joined us at the opening of our new Sheffield offices.

Further to our merger with Acclaimed Family Law in January 2023, we will now operate in Sheffield as Sills & Betteridge inc Acclaimed Family Law from New Oxford House, Barker’s Pool in the regenerated ‘Heart of the City’ Quarter to enable our next period of growth.

Matrimonial practice Acclaimed Family Law of Campo Lane joined us to make available to their clients, a wider range of personal and commercial services.

For Sills & Betteridge, the collaboration realised their aspiration to operate in Sheffield, a key ambition in their development plans for Yorkshire, seeing the firm’s Northern network grow to 5 offices since 2018.

Chief Executive Martyn Hall said

“We are ambitious for Sheffield. We look forward to further integration of our two practices and working together to develop various service expansion opportunities. The new office will enable us to accommodate additional strategic hires across a number of practice areas and support our future growth”.

Michelle Cooper, Partner and Founder of Acclaimed Family Law said

"The relocation to larger, prestigious premises in such a high profile part of the city is an exciting move for the original Acclaimed Family team, especially as we will now join forces with colleagues from Sills & Betteridge. Clients will now have access to a full range of complementary services from experts so all their needs are met under one roof.

Together, the merged practice will continue to offer the high quality matrimonial representation, with specialists in high value and complex cases on which Acclaimed built their formidable reputation, alongside family law representation for publicly funded clients, family mediation, residential property, private client work and corporate commercial legal services."

The firm now has 18 offices across Yorkshire, Lincolnshire and the East Midlands employing over 430 people. 2024 has been a period of significant activity for the firm including its acquisition of Nottingham headquartered Campions Solicitors, significant refurbishment of its Boston premises and current relocation of its Northampton and Sleaford teams to larger premises.
