Insurance and commercial legal adviser Horwich Farrelly (HF) has announced that it has strengthened its flagship office in Manchester with 21 new hires. These new hires will be based in the Media City office, in the firm’s rapidly growing recoveries department.

With this announcement, HF’s personnel in the specialist area total more than 100 people, making it one of the largest teams in their field. The HF recoveries division works for several large insurers and have been instrumental in the success of their clients. During the first quarter of 2023 alone, the team has recovered over £14.4 million for the firm’s clients, in addition to taking over 57,000 instructions during 2022.

“We’re very pleased to welcome so many new colleagues to HF. The success of our recoveries team means we’re always looking to recruit new talent and the addition of their skills will support our growth plans and help us continue to deliver the excellent levels of service our clients expect,” HF CEO and managing partner Ronan McCann said in a news release.

Last year, the law firm launched HOLLY, a new technology aimed at improving the online injuries claims (OIC) process.
