I am a Senior Associate solicitor dealing with residential property work and leading the team in the North Herts office at Hyde Hall Farm. I completed my legal training in Cambridge and worked in our Cambridge office for a number of years prior to the Royston and now North Herts office.
I have lived locally in Royston for many years and prior to that in South Cambridgeshire. I am very much part of the local community and consider my local knowledge to be extremely useful when dealing with conveyancing transactions in the area. I have built strong, trusted relationships with local estate agents and referrers. These relationships can help progress matters and ensure all parties work together to achieve completion.
I deal with all aspects of residential property work, including sales and purchases, new builds, transfer of equity, re-mortgage and first registrations.
My team and I pride ourselves on delivering a friendly, personal and professional service. We work closely with other teams within Tees, including private client, family and wealth, to ensure that our clients have access to advice specific to their individual needs.

Tee are very informative, clear instructions and a very fast result. A pleasure to work with. Highly recommend
