 Martin Plowman
Partner
Martin graduated from Cambridge and trained with a City of London firm, qualifying as a solicitor in 1987 when he joined Leathes Prior.
He is the Head of the Litigation Department and specialises in dispute resolution, either through the courts or by negotiation or mediation - whatever is likely to prove the most cost effective way of achieving a client's wishes. He is an experienced advocate in both the County Court and the Employment Tribunal.
Martin is also a CEDR registered Mediator and the founder of Leathes Prior's mediation arm, mediation-1st. He has successfully mediated a wide range of disputes, from local building disputes in Norwich to multi national commercial disputes in London.
His work as a Mediator and the insight it gives him into the dynamics and tactics of negotiation can give clients a key edge in achieving their goals.
Martin has particular expertise in advising local housing authorities on the discharge of their statutory duties under the Housing Act 1996 and in defending challenges to homelessness decisions in the courts.
Martin is responsible for the recruitment of trainee solicitors and is fluent in German.
