Experienced real estate solicitor recognised in the Legal 500, Sean Palka, joins DJB as Client Partner.
Sean is a recognised legal and business management leader, with strategic and operational experience through a range of business leadership roles across both legal and property markets.
He worked at Blake Morgan for nearly 30 years, taking on the role of the Head of Property Business Group in his last 4 years. Sean subsequently took on roles at the development company Two Saints Limited and is a board member at Teign Housing.
Sean has worked in several sectors including retail, leisure and financial. His leadership and management experience, as well as passion for building high-performance cultures means all of his legal advice is delivered to help his clients achieve their commercial needs.
“Sean Palka’s arrival at DJB is yet more evidence that the firm can attract specialists of the highest calibre, despite the ongoing shortage of legal professionals within the industry. We hired 15 senior lawyers in the first half of the year and have plans to attract 15 more. We’re well on track to hit this target, and, therefore, become the firm which can offer its clients the best legal talent and the widest range of specialist advice.” – Peter Allinson, CEO
