Partners, staff and clients gathered at a reception at The Galley Restaurant to say a fond farewell to Jenny Peyton.

We are pleased to announce that Jennifer Humphreys has recently qualified as a notary public after completing a two-year course with the University of Cambridge. Notaries are members of the oldest legal profession in England and even today they are appointed by the Archbishop of Canterbury. Unlike solicitors and barristers, notaries are recognised internationally. They are most often required where a document is executed in the UK for use abroad. While Jennifer continues to practice as a solicitor, her qualification as a notary will allow her to provide an even higher level of service for clients with assets overseas.

Probate, Wills and Trusts Department moves to Ancient House Mews.

Jennifer Humphreys has been accepted as a member of the national association “Solicitors for the Elderly” (SFE). SFE is an association of lawyers who specialise in legal services for older people and their carers. Jennifer’s membership of SFE will provide clients with the assurance that the firm has wide-ranging expertise in providing legal services for older people.

The Partners are delighted to announce that a new Partner, Colin Clark, will be joining our London office with effect from 12 January 2009. Colin’s work is mainly commercial property, and a large part of his practice involves acting on behalf of Irish individuals, companies and banks investing in property in the UK. We all look forward to welcoming Colin to the team.
