Firm promotes two to partner

Norfolk-based firm Spire Solicitors has added two partners to its team with the promotion of Ejike Ndaji and Susan Ward.

Ejike (pictured) qualified to practise in 2013, and completed his training with Overburys, one of the three firms that formed part of Spire Solicitors following a merger in 2013. He is based in the firm’s Wymondham office and specialises in private client matters, spanning estate administration and planning, will drafting, and Court of Protection issues. Ejike commented: ‘Having seen Spire Solicitors LLP grow from its formation in 2013 and having been involved in one of the founding firms, it is truly a fantastic honour to be recognised with the recent promotion to partner. I look forward to many more years working with my colleagues to continue the growth of the firm, as well as continuing our exceptional level of service to clients.’

Susan has been with Spire Solicitors since 2016, and works within its Norwich office. She focuses on handling a wide range of property matters, with areas of experience including residential sales and purchases, new build conveyancing, and mortgage security cases. Commenting on her promotion, Susan said: ‘Spire Solicitors LLP is a dynamic and thriving practice and I’m pleased to be welcomed as partner to continue the growth of the business from its initial foundations.’

HR director Lisa Edwards added: ‘The members and I would like to congratulate Susan and Ejike. The appointment to partner is testament to their dedication, loyalty and hard work and we wish them every success in their new roles.’
