General

As the festive season approaches, we want to take a moment to thank you for your continued support throughout another busy and rewarding year.

2025 has been an eventful year for Rothera Bray, marked by strategic growth, community initiatives, and industry recognition. From welcoming new colleagues and a key merger to championing charitable causes and earning prestigious awards, here’s a look back at the key highlights and achievements of the past year.

We’re delighted that nine of our talented trainees and chartered legal executives have officially qualified as solicitors and are continuing their legal careers with us here.

Ever wondered who keeps the legal world spinning while solicitors and legal executives focus on the law? Let me take you behind the scenes of a high-street legal office, where paralegals, secretaries, and admin staff quietly (and sometimes not so quietly!) keep everything running smoothly.

As the festive season approaches, the team at Rothera Bray would like to take a moment to thank you for your continued support throughout what has been a busy but incredibly rewarding year. While we’ll soon be taking a short break to recharge, we want to ensure you have all the information you need to reach us if required during the holiday period. 

We are thrilled to announce that five of our trainee solicitors have recently completed their training contracts and are now fully qualified solicitors.  

Demonstrating our commitment to the local community, our staff have been rolling up their sleeves and lending a helping hand to Derby Kids’ Camp.

We are delighted to share that we have made nine promotions across a range of key practice areas, including the elevation of two professionals to partner and four individuals to senior associate roles across four of our office locations.

Rotheras Solicitors LLP and Bray & Bray Solicitors merged as of 1 October, becoming Rothera Bray LLP.

As part of National Careers Week (6th-11th March), supporting young people in developing awareness about future job pathways, we spoke to three Rothera Bray employees about why they chose a career in law, the different routes they have taken to become qualified and what advice they would recommend for anyone considering a legal career.

We are hugely proud of our staff and accomplishments in 2022. Here are just a few highlights across the firm this year.

To say that appearing at court can be a daunting experience is an understatement, especially if you’re attending for the first time or for a particularly serious offence.
