“We are delighted that a senior lawyer like Mary is joining our company,” said Mr Gleed in making the announcement.

“Her skill set and expertise in financial services, commercial litigation and insolvency deepens our existing offerings in those areas.

“Mary’s commitment to delivery of high-quality advice in a commercial and timely fashion match what our clients have come to expect of us.

Commenting on her new role, Ms Nemeth said: “Having previously been a partner with Philip Gleed and his fellow director, Scott Stewart for six years, I am very excited to again be working with both of them.

I can see that my clients will benefit greatly from what WARD Lawyers can offer them”.

“Being part of a boutique firm which is both nimble and agile was a compelling proposition for both my clients and myself. Having the opportunity to be part of the next generation of leaders at WARD Lawyers was also of particular appeal to me,” she added.
