Corporate

Joanna joined the Glenville Walker team in April 2021 as a trainee solicitor. Through her hard work and dedication, she has climbed the corporate ladder and is now an Associate in our Corporate department.

Joanna completed her law degree at Lancaster University in 2016 and went on to complete her LPC and master’s degree in law and business at the University of Law in Chester while working part-time at a regional law firm. She then spent three years as a Senior Paralegal at a magic circle law firm in Manchester, specialising in due diligence, contract negotiation, and anti-trust and competition. Keen to return to Liverpool, Joanna joined Glenville Walker to further her legal career.

Joanna has worked closely with Managing Partner and Head of Corporate Law, Denise Walker, on many transactions and has developed an extensive and strong skillset. Joanna is now  conducting her own transactions and corporate reorganisations, having worked on several complex reorganisations while at Glenville Walker. She aligns perfectly with the firm by adopting a person-centric approach and tenacity, driving our firm away from the ordinary and providing a tailored experience to our clients.

In her spare time, Joanna enjoys unwinding with friends, exploring the best local food haunts Liverpool has to offer, and has recently become an avid lover of reformer Pilates and matcha. Some would say she has officially entered her wellness era!

BIOGRAPHY
WHAT THEY SAY

"Choosing Glenville Walker to represent us was the best decision we have ever made. I and other minority shareholders were placed in a position where we needed urgent advice and representation on a company share sale. Our group were made up of people with differing knowledge and experience in terms of the reality of a share sale. Denise Walker, Jo Sproson and Stephen Mungo were our team supporting and guiding us through the process. At all times they made sure that everyone understood what was needed and explained every element in plain English; this really helped those in our team that had previously had little understanding of the complexities of such transactions. The Glenville Walker team were responsive, proactive, and always on hand when we needed them. We were already aware of the excellent reputation of Glenville Walker, however before instructing we benchmarked them against other firms to ensure we chose the right fit for our needs, in terms of the services offered, cost and most importantly the personality fit for our team. In all areas Glenville Walker excelled! We would highly recommend Denise, Jo, Stephen and Glenville Walker generally and will be our first port of call in the future!"
