SOLICITORS at Coffin Mew are taking part in a physical endurance event to celebrate the legacy of their sports- loving outgoing chairman Nick Gross.

To mark Nick’s 34 years at the firm, solicitors will complete ‘The Gross Challenge’ on Sunday, each facing their own fitness challenge with the theme of the number 34.

Chairman and corporate partner Nick dedicated his career to Coffin Mew’s ongoing success, having joined the firm as a trainee in September 1983.

He was instrumental in the firm’s merger with Charles Lucas and Marshall last year.

Six teams of solicitors will face the finale of the challenge at Lakeside North Harbour, Portsmouth.

Nick will be running 15k as the head of team one.
