Firm announces double hire

Midlands firm Roythornes Solicitors has expanded its team with the announcement of two additions to its property and debt recovery practices.

Catherine Rickett (left) joins Roythornes from Taylor Rose TTKW, and will now take on the role of head of the debt recovery team, based in the Spalding head office. She commented: ‘Roythornes has a fantastic reputation so I’m really looking forward to getting stuck in and getting to know the team.

‘I have been working in the legal sector for more than 11 years but in 2015 I qualified as a chartered legal executive from CILEx Law School and have been working in debt recovery and enforcement of judgments ever since. I’m therefore very excited to step up into the role of debt recovery manager, and the next phase of my career, at Roythornes.’

The second addition, Rosalyn Thompson (right), has moved from Wilkin Chapman Solicitors in Lincoln, and will sit in the Nottingham office as a solicitor with the property development team. She said: ‘I’m thrilled to be joining the Roythornes’ commercial property team as it’s an incredibly strong sector of the business. My strengths are in site acquisition and development so I’m really looking forward to working on top quality cases with well recognised local clients.

‘Roythornes is a well sized firm with big ambitions so being part of the successful property team will be a fantastic challenge.’

Managing director Vember Mortlock added: ‘We’re delighted to welcome Catherine and Rosalyn to Roythornes. This is a time of real growth for us in the region and they will help us to achieve our ambitious growth plans.’
