Claire Cooper has picked up the reins in the Birmingham office from Fahmida Ismail who has now retired from the firm. Claire will be continuing to build the commercial property team in the City.
And finally, Shelley Collingbourne leads the private client team at the Sheldon office. She has steadily grown through the ranks, having trained at Sydney Mitchell straight from school and has reached the ultimate goal with her promotion to partner. An inspiration to all budding lawyers out there!
