Jane Cooper & Izzy Jaques—Parrott & Coales

Two new joiners for firm  

Parrott & Coales LLP has recruited two lawyers to join its residential conveyancing department and family team.

The appointments come just months after solicitors, Lorraine Wilde and Brinder Randhawa, joined the property team. Jane Cooper, a qualified Fellow of CILEx (Chartered Institute of Legal Executives), is the latest addition, bringing with her 21 years in conveyancing. Jane is a specialist in all aspects of residential conveyancing and is particularly experienced with new builds, lease extensions, shared ownerships and the Help to Buy Government mortgage scheme. 

Izzy Jaques also joins as an assistance solicitor in the family department and is the second new joiner this month for Parrott & Coales. Izzy will be responsible for assisting and advising clients on all areas of family law from divorce, child arrangement orders through to pre-nuptial agreements and civil partnerships. 

"Parrott & Coales is well established with a great reputation in the area.  What really attracted me to them though was their approach to customer service," says Izzy. "Client experience is their number one priority, unlike other solicitors who tend to be driven more by targets, and it’s why a large number of clients have stayed with the firm for many years.

"The size of the team and the expertise within it, will also give me the support I need to progress my career in family law."

Sarah Plumridge, managing partner of Parrott & Coales, says: " It's great to have two such experienced people join the team who are specialists in their field. Parrott & Coales is a growing firm and we need great talent to sustain this growth and to continue to move the firm forward."
