Two lawyers at Bondholder Nelsons Solicitors have achieved membership to the Association of Contentious Trust and Probate Specialists (ACTAPS), illustrating the firm's expertise in the area.
Noel McNicholas has been an associate member of ACTAPS for two years, enabling him to apply for full membership which he secured this month.
Nicola Parr has also reached a milestone in her ACTAPS membership receiving associate membership status earlier in the year.
Smith Partnership has been celebrating the impressive 150 years' worth of combined service between six of its staff who have been presented with rewards to mark their continuous service and for delivering outstanding support to the firm.
