Sheridans announces new partner

Sheridans has announced a new partner has joined their firm.

Priya Palanivel has joined Sheridans as a partner. Palanivel is a family lawyer and mediator, who joins from Rayden Solicitors.

In Legal 500 2022 Priya has been praised as “an outstanding partner with a wealth of experience in dealing with high-net-worth cases which makes her an extremely safe pair of hands in dealing with financial remedy cases. She is very hard working with an excellent eye for detail and a very astute strategic sense”.

In Chambers & Partners High Net Worth 2022 it is said that Priya “really gets stuck into a case and is really passionate about her clients”, “is a real fighter for her clients’ best interests” and is “really smart and capable” and “a very collaborative and constructive lawyer”.

Andrea Plum, Head of Sheridans’ Family Group, stated:

“I could not be happier to welcome Priya to the firm. It has taken an incredibly long time to find the right partner to join me in building the family team at Sheridans. I look forward to working with Priya and other members of the firm and seeing what we can achieve in the coming years, both individually and as a team.”

Welcoming Priya’s move, Howard Jones, Managing Partner of Sheridans, commented:

“I am delighted that Priya has joined the Family Group at Sheridans. Priya brings a wealth of experience in family law, management skills and business acumen, and I am excited to see her and Andrea work together to build the team, grow the practice and increase the firm’s family law offering.”

Priya added:

“I’m thrilled to be joining Sheridans and look forward to working alongside Andrea to build the family team and serve our clients. Exciting times ahead.”
