JMP Solicitors—three appointments

Firm announces trio of hires

Grantham-based firm JMP Solicitors has expanded its team with a triple hire, welcoming private client solicitor Andrea Bingham, family law solicitor Mikaela Rogerson, and Reiss Williams as IT manager.

Andrea specialises in drafting wills and Lasting Powers of Attorney, and also deals with Court of Protection applications, grants of probate, and administering estates after death. Initially practising in criminal litigation and mental health law, Andrea has been focusing on private client matters since 2007.

Mikaela, who qualified as a solicitor in 1996, handles all aspects of family law with a particular focus on financial cases. She is also a former member of the Law Society’s advanced family law panel.

Reiss joins the team as its on-site IT specialist, and will be responsible for ensuring the running and maintenance of the computing systems in the Grantham head office.

Ian Howard, managing director at JMP Solicitors, said: ‘We are delighted to welcome Andrea, Mikaela and Reiss to the team—all of whom have skills and experience in spades to help strengthen the services we offer to our valued clients.

‘It is a pleasure to have Andrea and Mikaela on board—two extremely skilled solicitors with successful backgrounds in their fields of expertise and we look forward to seeing them fit in to the team. Reiss brings valuable IT experience and knowledge with him, and his work on our systems will bolster how efficiently we can deliver services to our clients, as well as improving the working experience for everyone at JMP.

‘We wish them all the best of luck in their new roles and it will be great to have them with us as we continue to grow.’
