SOLICITOR Robert Capper has been promoted to the position of equity partner at Worcester law firm Harrison Clark.

Mr Capper, who now heads up the firm's commercial department, qualified just seven years ago.

"When I joined the firm it was a local practice concentrating mainly on private client work with a limited amount of corporate work," he said.

"My career has mirrored the firm's growth over this period and I am delighted to have been offered this position."
