BeesMont Law Limited announces recent appointments and promotions

Speaking on investing in human talent, Managing Partner Sharon Beesley said:
“At BeesMont Law, we recognise that an important driver of our success is our people. The pandemic has served to re-focus our attention on the need to demonstrate the value we place on our staff and that this value extends beyond financial profits, and attaches to our core values – ethics, professionalism and acknowledgement of the inherent worth of individuals as human beings. As a hybrid

When we put these values into practice, our client-focused advisory business thrives and so does our culture. I want to congratulate all of those appointed and promoted at BeesMont Law and thank them for their dedication to our organisation and their teamwork.”
