ROBERT Starr has proved his star qualities, securing promotion to associate director at Peterborough-based Greenwoods Solicitors LLP.

Mr Starr, from Greenwoods’ nationally renowned business defence team, advises clients on regulatory and compliance issues, often during the investigation and interview stages after a fatal accident or major workplace incident.

In addition, Mr Starr speaks at conferences and events, updating delegates on topical regulatory issues such as bribery, workplace safety and directors’ duties. He also delivers in-house training to organisations both locally and nationally as well as contributing articles on current issues to the media.

Robert Dillarstone, managing director of Greenwoods, said, “Robert really is a star in nature as well as by name. Clients enjoy working with him and value his analytical approach and ability to ‘get the job done’. Robert is a great asset to Greenwoods’ team and I am delighted to welcome him as an associate director. His promotion is thoroughly deserved.”
