Martin Hanna, senior partner and grandson of the firm’s founder, said: “We are very excited to announce the opening of our second boutique office on the Lisburn Road.

“At Francis Hanna & Co, we have a long-established reputation for excellence in the provision of legal services in Northern Ireland generally. However, at our heart, we have always been family-based firm and throughout our history we have represented generations of families in the communities in which we live and work.

“We have always strived to meet our clients’ legal needs throughout all of life’s challenges and to do so in a professional, comfortable and confidential environment.”

He added: “Our current partnership has many personal links with south Belfast and as such we have been keen to bring the firm’s services to those living within this community.

“Our expansion is not merely about establishing an office — it is about becoming an integral part of the south Belfast community and providing a service to that community. We are committed to engaging with local residents, understanding their unique legal needs, and offering them bespoke solutions.

“This expansion is an exciting time for Francis Hanna & Co, and an opportunity for us as a business to showcase our wealth of knowledge and client-focused approach to this dynamic area of Belfast.”
