Solicitor Sarah Thomson has joined regional law firm Withy King’s expanding residential property team in Wiltshire.
Sarah, pictured, who has 16 years’ experience working in residential property, has been appointed to Withy King’s Marlborough office as an associate. She previously worked for Awdry Bailey & Douglas, based in its Chippenham office. 
Sarah’s appointment continues the growth at Withy King’s residential property department, which has doubled in size in recent years and now employs 15 people in its Swindon and Marlborough offices.
The team deals with the conveyancing requirements of those buying and selling new build houses, flats and period properties as well as the more complex issues often associated with larger properties and agricultural estates.
Partner Robert Collins, who heads the team in Marlborough, said: “We are delighted to have Sarah on board. She has extensive experience of property law as well as an excellent knowledge of the local market. She is friendly and approachable too so it’s little wonder she’s already making her mark.
“This is an exciting time for Withy King’s property team, which has grown partly due to improving economic conditions and renewed market confidence and partly due to the new relationships we have forged with estate agents and their clients as well as investors, developers and house builders.
“The appetite for homes in Wiltshire’s market towns as well as larger properties in its more rural corners continues to grow, and our expansion reflects this.”
Sarah added: “Residential property work has many dimensions which makes it interesting, but what really motivates me is the human element which stems from the strong and ongoing relationships I develop with my clients.
“Withy King has an excellent reputation for its property expertise and in-depth knowledge of the Wiltshire market and I look forward to playing a role in its continuing success.”
