We are delighted to share that Maria Evans has rejoined Lester Aldridge as an Associate in our Litigation and Recoveries team.

Maria is an experienced commercial litigator with more than 15 years of experience helping businesses, individuals and insolvency practitioners navigate complex disputes. She originally began her legal career at LA, progressing from Paralegal to Chartered Legal Executive and later qualifying as a Solicitor while managing a full caseload and completing her professional studies.

After gaining valuable experience at two respected regional firms, Maria has returned with a strong track record in commercial and consumer disputes, insolvency litigation, asset recovery and enforcement work. Her calm, practical approach and ability to guide clients clearly through challenging issues make her a great addition to the team.

Ann Lloyd, Partner and Head of Litigation and Recoveries, said:

“I am so pleased to welcome Maria back to LA. She is technically strong, thoughtful in her advice and great with clients. Having worked with Maria earlier in her career, I know the positive impact she brings to a team and I am delighted she has chosen to return.”

Maria commented on her return to the firm:

“Returning to LA feels like coming home. This is where my legal career began, so I have come full circle, and I am delighted to rejoin the Litigation and Recoveries team. I am looking forward to supporting the team’s clients once again and contributing to the team’s continued growth.”

We are excited to have Maria back and look forward to seeing the contribution she will make to our clients and our Litigation and Recoveries team.
