Thursfields—Alison Wacey

Conveyancing specialist joins in Worchester

Midlands firm Thursfields Solicitors has boosted its residential property team in Worchester with the appointment of Alison Wacey.

Alison joins the firm from Clarke Brookes Turner Cary, before which she was a partner with Lodders in Stradford-upon-Avon. She brings with her more than 30 years of conveyancing experience across the Midlands region.

Alison commented: ‘I’m really excited to be joining Thursfields, a firm which attracted me with its growing reputation for a focus on the high quality of service to its clients. I have a wide experience of dealing with large rural properties that often need specialist input, and I plan to help Thursfields develop even better solutions for clients facing complex legal title issues or difficulties.’

Managing director Nick O’Hara (pictured, left) added: ‘We’re delighted to welcome Alison to our team, and are confident that her expertise in the conveyancing of country homes will add a real depth to our residential property team.’
