Pannone Corporate promotes Jagger to Head of Debt Recovery

North West law firm, Pannone Corporate, has promoted Paul Jagger to head the long-established Debt Recovery team, as it continues to invest in its development and growth.

Paul, who joined Pannone in July 2022, takes over the lead role from Karl Williams, following his retirement earlier this year. Karl was Head of the Debt Recovery team at Pannone for over 20 years. The team boasts a longstanding and national client base, which includes DHL, L’Oreal and Manchester City Council.

Taking over the reins, Paul also brings considerable experience to the role, having worked in the sector for 15 years , most recently at Ward Hadaway.

Paul will be responsible for leading the Debt Recovery practice during the next phase of growth, with ambitions to extend the firm’s footprint across key sectors including manufacturing, professional services, retail and technology.

Paul Jonson, senior partner at Pannone, said: “We’re delighted to announce the promotion of Paul to Head of Debt Recovery. In a short space of time, he has made a real impact on the team and is perfectly placed to take over from Karl, who built a fantastic reputation for the team.

“The team is in excellent hands under the stewardship of Paul and we look forward to seeing how the practice develops and grows in the coming months and years, as we continue to support high profile brands across a diverse range of sectors in the important area of debt recovery.”

His promotion follows the appointment of David Walton, who joins Pannone’s regulatory team as partner, bringing over 30 years’ experience to the role. He joins from Keoghs LLP, where he played an instrumental role in establishing the crime and regulatory team, working throughout his career on high profile prosecutions instigated by the CPS, HSE, Environmental Health and the Environment Agency.

Paul commented: “When I joined Pannone, I was blown away by the wealth of opportunity and potential that exist at the firm, particularly in the Debt Recovery team. “Over the last few months, Karl and I have worked closely together to create a seamless transition – both for the team and our clients. I’m now extremely excited to get stuck in, making my own mark on what is a hugely talented team, as we continue to enhance how we work and the services we offer clients.”
