SSAS provider and tax adviser WBR Group has appointed corporate lawyer Roy Botterill as director of law. He was previously at Shakespeare Martineau, where he served for many years as head of its Leicester office. WBR Group established its legal services business in November 2023. WBR Law operates from offices in Leicester and London where small, dedicated teams provide clients with personalised legal services. It operates as a separately-regulated business under the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA).

WBR Law's existing leadership of Alan Simpson, Michael Conlon, and Anne Fendt each have more than 30 years of legal experience. WBR Law is expanding its team further to include a paralegal, graduate trainee solicitor and administrative support. The additions reflect WBR’s commitment to fostering new talent, the firm said.
