YOUNG SOLICITOR OF THE YEAR 2013

Simon Lofthouse who joined the firm in June 2010 as a trainee solicitor was awarded the Wiltshire Law Society Young Solicitor of the Year 2013 for Wiltshire.

Simon was nominated for this special award because of his involvement in ABD's ground-breaking department "abdcare" which specialises in asset protection for the elderly, together with his charity work in the community.

As well as receiving the Law Society Award, Simon was also given a "Kindle Fire" by Severn Trent Searches, sponsors of the award.

Rachel Fereday who trained at the firm and qualified as a solicitor in 2005, becoming a partner of the firm in 2012, was awarded the Gloucestershire and Wiltshire Solicitor of the Year Award 2013 for her outstanding commitment to the profession.
