NORTH East law firm Mincoff Jacksons has been appointed by South Coast-based Princess Yachts International as its preferred employment law adviser.

Princess Yachts, based in Plymouth, is one of the leading powerboat builders in Europe and the largest production boat builder in the UK.

Kevin Fletcher, senior partner and head of Mincoff Jacksons’ employment law team, said: “It goes without saying that we are absolutely delighted that Princess Yachts has chosen Mincoff Jacksons to advise them.

“I have visited their premises in Plymouth and am hugely impressed with their set up and with their plans for their future. It has earned itself a reputation as one of the most respected names in the marine industry. We are delighted to be on board.”

Newcastle-based Mincoff merged with Teesside firm Jacksons last year to form Mincoff Jacksons.
