Clough & Willis looks to the future with new residential conveyancing solicitor appointment

Bolton and Bury-based law firm Clough & Willis has added to its growing property team following the appointment of John Parker who is the department’s newest residential conveyancing solicitor. 

John has joined Clough & Willis from Linder Myers where we worked for five years. He trained at Woodcock & Sons and has also worked at Eversheds and Countrywide Conveyancing. He studied Law at the University of Newcastle upon Tyne and completed his LPC at the College of Law in York.

John covers all areas of conveyancing and has particular expertise in new builds, shared ownership, lease extensions/variations and adverse possession applications. He will be reporting to Lorraine Stratton-Webb who is a partner and head of the residential property team.

Lorraine said: “Over the past 20 years John has built up an impressive track record and reputation in the conveyancing sector so we are delighted that he has joined Clough & Willis. He brings with him a wealth of experience and knowledge that I know will add value to our clients.”

John added: “I started my career and trained in Bury so it feels like I’ve come home. After years working for large corporate firms in Manchester, I knew the time was right to move on and try something different. Clough & Willis offers a unique mix of being traditional but still forward thinking. That really appealed to me and I’m looking forward to making my mark.”
