North West law firm Brabners has boosted its Property Solutions team in Liverpool by appointing three solicitors.

The most recent recruit is Hannah Carter, who joins the firm from DWF LLP in Liverpool and has experience in resolving all aspects of property disputes including commercial, agricultural and residential matters.

Hannah’s appointment follows the arrival of Karen Beddow as Senior Associate; Karen previously worked at DWF LLP and Addleshaws and specialises in resolving retail property disputes, portfolio management issues and other claims arising from property transactions.

The third appointment is Heather Morris as Solicitor; Heather will advise on a wide range of property disputes, including high value professional negligence claims arising from real estate transactions.

Headed by Partner Rachel Watkin, the Property Solutions team sets itself apart from its competitors by offering and delivering a solutions based approach to disputes.

The team offers a range of experience across the spectrum of property disputes in the commercial, residential and agricultural sectors.

Commenting on the appointments, Rachel Watkin said: “We pride ourselves on delivering a first rate service to our clients which, given the broad spectrum of experience within the team, results in the client having access to expertise at a level appropriate to the individual case which in turn results in effective costs management for the client and efficiency in the provision of legal advice.”

Although the team has been extremely busy over recent months, Rachel foresees them becoming even more so with the recent announcement of the court fees increase: “It is understood that the fees are likely to increase so significantly that it may place access to justice out of reach for many potential litigators.

“As such, parties may be more actively seeking a solution rather than litigation.”

Mark Brandwood, Managing Partner at Brabners, added: “The new recruits will be invaluable support for our busy real estate team across Brabners’ three offices in Liverpool, Manchester and Preston.”
