Time to recognise 1,182 years of service!

Over 50 members of staff from Devon law firm Wollen Michelmore have been recognised with long service awards at the annual Christmas party held in Torquay.

With an impressive 1,182 years of service between them, the 53 staff was presented with individual recognition pins, a gift of their choice and a monetary gift voucher to mark their continuous service delivering excellent service to many hundreds of clients across the region.

The longest serving member of the law firm is Chairman, Michael Cosgrave who will have completed 45 years of service on 2nd January, 2017. Michael joined law firm Harold Michelmore in Newton Abbot dealing with property law in 1972.

Chris Hart, Chief Executive, said “It is incredible to have so many years of service within the firm. I and all of the management team are very proud of the commitment and dedication everyone shows within the firm and it gives us a real pleasure to take this opportunity to say thank you to so many long serving members of staff.”

Olivia Lee, HR Director for Wollen Michelmore, said “The large number of staff receiving long service awards is testament to the firm’s dedication to creating sustainable careers within the company. It’s a special time to be able to reward so many people.”

Over 110 people attended the party before Christmas, travelling from the five offices across Devon to join the festivities.
