Promotion marks a new chapter for law firm

Hampshire based law firm, Warner Goodman LLP, are delighted to announce that Navdeep Dulai has been promoted to Partnership Status from 1st August 2014.  While becoming a Partner may be a natural progression for a lawyer, Navdeep is in fact a Chartered Accountant and Head of the Accounts Department within Warner Goodman LLP, and so the first non-solicitor to become a Partner in the firms history.

Navdeep joined Warner Goodman LLP in 2006 after qualifying as a Chartered Accountant the previous year.  During her training to become an accountant, Navdeep was a member of the Accounts and Audit team and carried out a number of Solicitors Audits in the Hampshire and Isle of Wight area.  “It was during my time carrying out the Solicitors Audits that I gained invaluable knowledge of the legal profession, and was extremely interested in applying what I had learnt,” commented Navdeep.  “I was delighted when I had the opportunity to work for Warner Goodman LLP so I could focus all of my attention in this specialist area.  I have had many proud moments in my 8 ½ years at Warner Goodman LLP, but to be the first non-solicitor to reach Partner level is by far my greatest achievement.”

Ian Curtis, Managing Partner, said of the promotion, “Navdeep had a quick progression within the accounts team.  It only took 6 months for her to be promoted to Team Leader, and another 18 months to be promoted to Head of Finance.  To be able to reward her success within the firm with Partnership status is an excellent turning point for us, and we envisage that she won’t be the last non-solicitor to reach Partner level.”
