Ison Harrison, a Yorkshire-based law firm, has recently acquired Cohen Cramer Solicitors, a firm with a strong presence in Leeds and a national clientele. This strategic move highlights Ison Harrison’s dedication to growth, excellence, and the unique value of being an employee-owned business.
With roots dating back to 1980, when Howard Cohen & Co was established, Cohen Cramer has grown to specialize in personal injury, regulatory and criminal law, as well as animal-related cases, family law, dispute resolution, and legal costs. The firm, boasting a team of four directors and 27 employees, achieved a turnover exceeding £3 million last year.
This acquisition significantly strengthens Ison Harrison’s presence in the region, bringing their total staff count to over 300 and establishing 20 offices across Yorkshire. Jonathan Wearing, Managing Director of Ison Harrison, affirms, “This acquisition reflects our ongoing commitment to providing exceptional and accessible legal services throughout Yorkshire. By joining forces with Cohen Cramer’s specialist lawyers, we are expanding our team and enhancing our ability to serve clients with a broader range of legal services.”
Emma Mason, Managing Director of Cohen Cramer, adds, “Uniting with Ison Harrison presents an incredible opportunity for us. The firm’s strong reputation and extensive regional presence will enhance our capacity to deliver outstanding service to our clients. We are delighted to be part of an innovative, employee-owned firm that shares our commitment to client-centered legal practice. We are truly a great fit.”
