Solent: Trethowans strengthens residential property team with new appointment

Regional law firm Trethowans has boosted its residential property team with the arrival of lawyer Jon Laidler, who joins from Hampshire firm Coffin Mew.

Based at Trethowans’ Salisbury office, Laidler, a highly-experienced residential conveyancing specialist, will be working closely with referrers and playing a pivotal role in growing the residential property offering.

He said: “I am delighted to be joining such a well respected firm, and am really looking forward to helping the residential property team continue its impressive growth.”

This key appointment comes at a time of continued growth for the award-winning property department. Increased client demand has resulted in wide recognition for the Trethowans conveyancing team and subsequent growth has resulted in a number of new appointments over the past year.

First, Halina Tomlinson joined to head up the residential property presence in Trethowans’ Southampton office and earlier this year she was joined by Catherine Duthie. In Salisbury, Samantha Tapper has also recently joined as a conveyancing executive. Jon Laidlaw takes the recent recruits up to four.

Tim Higham, head of Trethowans’ residential property, said the firm’s 13 strong property team is fast becoming the conveyancer of choice in the region.

“At Trethowans we pride ourselves on going the extra mile and our expert team provides a personal service for each of its clients. This genuinely differentiates us from many other law firms in the region.”
