Rigby Cooke managing partner Bill Karvela said: “Congratulations to Tom, Biljana and James on their well-deserved promotions. This is an exciting time for them as they advance in their careers. These promotions recognise their respective talent, expertise, and experience.

“Throughout the past year, they have each made significant contributions to the success of the firm. Their steadfast dedication and commitment to delivering consistently excellent service to their clients is truly commendable.”
