Rollits LLP is a Yorkshire commercial law firm, with offices in Hull and York, England. The firm was founded in 1841 by John Rollit, and is run by Richard Field as Managing Partner and Steve Trynka as Senior Partner. Rollits employ around 100 staff which includes over 60 lawyers, of whom 21 are partners. In May 2010 the firm became a Limited Liability Partnership, moving away from the traditional partnership model to a more modern and flexible structure. Rollits' practice is focused on corporate clientele, ranging from major PLCs to smaller private companies, charities and the education sector. The firm also serves private clients in trust and estate planning. ==History== In Hull in 1841, John Rollit, the son of a local cabinet-maker, became an Articled Clerk in the offices of local solicitor William Dryden at 2 Bowlalley Lane. Later, having married Eliza Kaye, the daughter of the “Builder of Huddersfield” architect Joseph Kaye,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Buildings of John Huddersfield )〕 set up the law firm at 62 Whitefriargate in 1850. In the twentieth century and Rollits continued under the direction of John’s two sons Albert and Arthur. Thomas Farrell joined the firm in 1875, after a spell as a journalist for the ''Hull Morning News'', but it was his son, Hugh, who put the family name on the name plate. Later he was joined by Dick Bladon who became a Partner on New Year’s Day 1934 when the firm became Rollit Farrell & Bladon. Since then the firm has continued to grow as a private and commercial firm with Partners changing over the years to reflect the changing needs of commerce and new legal strictures that were placed on business under each new Government administration. After the Second World War and into the 1960s the firm increased in size as it became essential to share the growing workload. In the 1970s the firm merged with Mainprize & Rignall,〔 (【引用サイトリンク】title=Amalgamated Firms )〕 and in the 1980s acquired Neville Hobson & Co. It was at this point, that the traditional mode of partnership management which involved all Partners in every decision was abandoned in favour of a “more modern” management committee. Today the firm has adopted a modern management structure with a management board supported by three teams: business support, knowledge and skills and client relations. Its offices are based in its birth city of Hull and also in York. ; Sector Specialisms: * Agriculture & Horticulture * Charities & Social Enterprise〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Careers in Law )〕 * Debt Recovery〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Debt Management & Debt Recovery )〕 * Education * Family & Owner Managed Businesses * Food〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Julian Nicholas Wild LLB )〕 * Motor * Planning, Development & Construction * Renewables * Social Housing 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Rollits LLP」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
