Excellent experience start to finish – always very responsive to any queries and the turnaround on the property I was buying was very quick, even in the busy time leading up to stamp duty deadline. Jenny was always very helpful and went above and beyond to close on a short timescale.
We are delighted to announce a series of promotions across the firm. Rebecca Taylor has been promoted to senior associate solicitor in our Dispute Resolution team; Lauren Sever has been promoted to associate solicitor in the Commercial, Corporate and Employment department; and Joanne Mercer has become an associate probate manager in the Private Client team.
