We are delighted to announce the well deserved promotion of Philip Copley to Senior Associate.

Phil has been with us since we opening our doors in January 2020 and has worked hard with clients and colleagues throughout to help the business grow and become the success it is today. He has developed particular expertise in residential and real property cases (including cladding), including a reported appeal decision on adverse possession.

Phil has achieved several separate recognitions of his property litigation work over the past few years both in the legal directories and by winning the "Rising Star of the Year" Award in last year's Yorkshire Legal Awards. He was recently appointed Chair of the Junior Property Litigation Association's regional committee for the North of England.

On the promotion, Phil says "I’ve been with Hägen Wolf since we launched four years ago, and it’s been fantastic to see the team and business grow so much. We do lots of interesting work for varied clients, and I’m very excited about my future here."

Managing Partner, Matt Pugh says " We are very proud of Phil. I've worked with Phil since he was a paralegal, years before the birth of Hägen Wolf, and it has been a pleasure to watch Phil become the rounded lawyer he is today."
