A NEWLY qualified solicitor will be providing her services in Ludlow.

Private client solicitor Lauren Williams has joined the Ludlow office of law firm mfg Solicitors.

She started with the firm as a trainee in 2021, successfully qualifying this summer, and will work closely alongside Ludlow partners Peter Stephens, Janna Vigar and Sally Smith at the firm’s Corve Street base.

Ms Williams will support the firm’s clients on a variety of private matters including wills, trusts, estate and tax planning, Lasting Powers of Attorney, and offering advice on complex probate, inheritance tax and estate administration matters.

An mfg spokesperson said: “Lauren has a huge future in the legal industry so it’s great to bring her into our team here in Ludlow now she has qualified.

“Alongside Peter, Janna and Sally, Lauren is already playing a key role and is supporting a range of clients.”

Lauren Williams said: “Our team in Ludlow has a remarkable reputation both locally and regionally, so I am delighted to have the opportunity to grow our offering even further in the months and years ahead.

“I’ve worked through a thorough training programme over the past three years and learned so much alongside several specialist partners at the firm. That has prepared me perfectly for the future and to be here in Ludlow really is a tremendous first step for me in my career.

“Aside from my work as a solicitor, I am also keen to get involved with as many community initiatives as possible, both in Ludlow and across the wider Shropshire area.”
