Milners has bolstered its property team with a brace of new appointments.
The law firm, based in Leeds city centre, Harrogate and Pontefract, has strengthened its conveyancing team with the appointment of Kim Stockburn (pictured, left).
Solicitor Tiffany Jackson (pictured, right) has also joined the firm, boosting its commercial property specialism.
Both new hires joined Milners from McCormicks Solicitors. Their appointments expand its team of people to 40.
Stockburn, a conveyancing executive, has been helping people buying or selling a home since 1987, throughout Harrogate and the wider Yorkshire district, as well as across all areas of England and Wales.
She joins a team, led by residential property manager John Robson, at a time when it has been re-awarded a top accolade by the Law Society for the way it meets conveyancing best practice and safeguards against potential fraud.
Jackson brings a wide range of skills and experience to Milners, most notably supporting the launch of the COVID-19 vaccination centre at Elland Road, Leeds.
A graduate of the University of Law in Leeds, she has a track record in executing transactions spanning all areas of commercial and agricultural property, including sales and purchases, lease renewals and surrenders, and freehold and leasehold agreements.
Commercial property partner Mathew Haynes said of the new arrivals at the firm: “We’re thrilled to add two people of Kim and Tiffany’s calibre to our pool of legal talent.”
“Their blend of legal expertise, experience and local knowledge will add an extra dimension to our range of services.”
He added: “Few people can boast as much conveyancing expertise as Kim—and it is a real coup that she has chosen to work with us.
“For almost four decades, she has helped clients based just around the corner and in remote areas of the world.
“She has built up an excellent reputation for meeting a client’s individual needs—whether that is for one of her many first-time buyer customers. or those more established on the property ladder buying properties in the multi-million pound range.”
