Asons Solicitors, based in Bolton, is seeking to recruit over 300 new staff following sustained growth since its launch five years ago.
The firm is also offering 12 training contracts in 2014 and is moving into a new £7 million office development. Originally launched as a three-lawyer outfit, Asons has grown into a firm with a current turnover of £15 million and aims to expand further in the coming years.
Imran Akram, CEO and practice manager at Asons Solicitors, said: "We have exciting plans for the next five years. We are an ambitious and driven firm and we have grown rapidly to become one of the largest employers in Bolton. This new building marks our investment in the future; while other law firms have recently announced redundancies, we are growing from strength to strength. On top of this, we have plans to diversify, expanding into new areas such as sports and commercial law."
