Fast-growing London law firm Laurus has promoted three solicitors in its residential property team.
Farah Syed (pictured), who is based in the Northcote Road office, has been promoted to partner. Farah joined Laurus in 2019 and has over 15 years’ experience as a residential property lawyer advising on freehold and leasehold sales, purchases, refinancing and transfers of equity. One of the London’s most revered property solicitors, Farah’s clients include HNW individuals and their families based in the UK and abroad as well as developers and investors.
Jess Davis who is based in the City office has been promoted to senior associate. Jess specialises in freehold and leasehold sales and purchases, help to buy and new build transactions, re-mortgages and transfers of equity. Clients range from first time buyers through to investors and developers.
Finally, Northcote Road based Anam Hussain has been promoted to associate. After joining Laurus in late 2019, Anam has impressed the firm with her attention to detail and ability to build up an impressive client base which ranges from first time buyers to HNW families buying homes in prime areas of South and Central London.
Commenting on the promotions, James Hollingsworth, Laurus’ CEO said: 'We congratulate Farah, Jess and Anam on their well-deserved promotions which come at an exciting time for the residential property team which continues to grow at a rapid rate, despite the challenging pandemic year. They are great lawyers, lovely people, and a credit to the firm. The client feedback speaks for itself and I’m delighted that they will be taking this significant step in their careers with us. The team was boosted by 13 new recruits in 2020 and the firm expects to make further hires this year.'
