Re: GPB Solicitors bites the dust

It seems an ex-GPB, Peter Schalk, has agreed to join Brethertons. Is this another law firm for hire?

Re: GPB Solicitors bites the dust

I just had a quick look on Brethertons website and Peter Schalk started to work for them today. He's got 43 years experience in litigations and according to this new firm, they are expanding their collection team.
So it seems this lawfirm is a new 'debt collection firm' to look out for..
