Norwegian law firm Wikborg Rein has poached another Ince lawyer to build its casualty and emergency response practice.

Matt Berry will join this month as admiralty manager at the London office.

The former mariner and qualified solicitor has specialised in maritime casualties and claims at Ince for 11 years.

"At Wikborg Rein, Matt will investigate and handle ship casualty cases as well as working on, and helping expand, the firm's already significant admiralty practice," Wikborg Rein said.
