Darwin Gray continues to evolve with the announcement of a newly promoted Legal Director and further growth in numbers to meet demand.
Following the news of three newly promoted partners at Darwin Gray this month, we are pleased to announce the promotion of Sarah Price to Legal Director.
Sarah first joined Darwin Gray in 2004 and stayed with the firm for for a number of years, before returning in 2016 as an Associate.
