Kent firm Furley Page has welcomed newly qualified solicitor Heather Dunlop to its private client team.

Originally from Canada, Heather moved to the UK in 2007. She joined Furley Page as a trainee solicitor in 2017, and is based at the firm’s Canterbury office. She said: ‘The level of expertise at the firm is very impressive and I know I’ve learnt a tremendous amount during my training programme. Since qualifying I’ve enjoyed the extra responsibility of working directly with clients and I’m looking forward to taking on more work and building my expertise.’

Aaron Spencer, head of private client at Furley Page, said: ‘Furley Page takes great pride in nurturing talent through our first-rate training programme, which aims to find and develop the next generation of lawyers. I’m delighted to welcome Heather to the team on a permanent basis; she is a talented solicitor and I am confident that she will provide our clients with an excellent service.’
